Gov. Romney - Spends $5,000 to be pro-marriage

July 1, 2006 |

Spread a little cash around to make sure everyone knows that the Bluest State Governor is now a “True Blue” Conservative.

Governor Mitt Romney, a leading campaigner to outlaw gay marriage in Massachusetts, is now involving himself in a like-minded effort in South Carolina, where voters will decide this fall whether to add a similar ban to their state constitution.

Romney’s political action committee, the Commonwealth PAC, has given the South Carolina ballot campaign $5,000, its largest donation ever. He is the effort’s first “campaign sponsor,” a distinction reserved for major contributors. Romney also plans to send out a fund-raising letter on behalf of the initiative to about 150,000 South Carolinians in the next few weeks. And he’s expected to headline an event for it after Labor Day.

Such a move means some real “Green” for particular hot spots to show case what it means to be a ‘True Blue” Conservative Candidate. For some political humor on candidates that appear to change color you can read this post. It holds the link to a very creative ad. Perhaps it fit like a “Mitt”.

    He realizes that his previous political posturing would disqualify him from conservative consideration. He probably thinks that $5,000 is a small price to spend to get the conservatives fired up about our newest social-issues crusader. But uncovering such posturing is what the blogosphere is for.
