John McCain has responded to Mitt Romney's negative robo with one of his own, narrated by a woman:
“I’m calling with an urgent Mitt Romeny [unintelligible]"
"We care deeply about traditional values and protecting families. And we need someone who will not waver in the White House: Ending abortion, preserving the sanctity of marriage, stopping the trash on the airwaves and attempts to ban God from every corner of society. These issues are core to our being.
"Mitt Romney thinks he can fool us. He supported abortion on demand, even allowed a law mandating taxpayer-funding for abortion. He says he changed his mind, but he still hasn’t changed the law. He told gay organizers in Massachusetts he would be a stronger advocate for special rights than even Ted Kennedy. Now, it’s something different.
"Unfortunately, on issue after issue Mitt Romney has treated social issues voters as fools, thinking we won’t catch on. Sorry, Mitt, we know you aren’t trustworthy on the most important issue and you aren’t a conservative.
"Paid for by John McCain 2008."
While the call is clearly aimed at social conservatives to make them think twice about supporting Romney; McCain is unlikely to be their second choice. The true beneficiary of this call is none other than Mike Huckabee.
