Why won’t Mitt Romney let me like him? Every time I start to make peace with the idea of a Romney nomination, he goes and says something like this: “You know, it’s very easy to excite the base with incendiary comments. We’ve seen throughout the campaign if you’re willing to say really outrageous things… you’re going to jump up in the polls. I’m not willing to light my hair on fire to try and get support.” Read full article > >

AMES, Iowa—Mitt Romney unveiled plans Thursday for an aggressive finishing sprint in Iowa designed to lock down a victory in next week’s caucuses that would leave his rivals scrambling to catch up.

But no campaign can match Romney’s for the breadth and depth of its infrastructure, and for the first time the weapons he can deploy are all on display. Read full article > >
