WP: Romney “Milks” Troop Support “Gimmick”

From the always unbiased and pro-troops Washington Post:


‘SURGE OF SUPPORT’

Romney to Give $25,000

To Groups Backing Troops

Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney said that he will donate $25,000 to seven organizations dedicated to supporting troops, and he urged the public to engage in a “surge of support” for those on the battlefield. The gimmick elicited loud applause as Romney toured a high-tech assembly facility in Milford, N.H., and visited Moulton’s Market, a few minutes away in Amherst.

At both places, Romney milked his donation for all it was worth. “There’s a lot of talk about supporting our troops,” he told the employees of Cirtronics. “Let’s have a surge of support while there’s such a surge of sacrifice going on in our country.” …

They are nothing if not subtle.
