Indeed. As the Hotline Blog guys say, sure this is September โ06, not September โ07?
They write:
The clever back-and-forth came to halt Sunday, when Adam Nagourney, the NYTโs chief political reporter, got Romney on the phone and on the record. โI am foursquare behind the president on this,โ Romney, said referring to McCainโs dispute with Pres Bush over the torture issue. โI believe that we should do everything possible to support those people at the front line who are responsible for enforcing the war on terrorism.โ But Romney wasnโt done. Asked if this was the โsharpestโ area of disagreement with McCain, Romney said: โ No. There are a number of things. We have different views on McCain-Feingold, differing views on immigration policy, differing views on the interrogation of terrorists.โ Perhaps looking to soften the blow, he then offered, โThere are also many other areas where we see eye to eye.โ
The senator, wrote Nagourney, hit back โtartly.โ McCain: โHe doesnโt have a vote.โ
