Mittster: Give Rudy A Chance To Explain Shag Fund Allegations


Translation from Romney: Giuliani is doing just fine with the rope that has already been handed to him.
TPM:
Mitt Romney was asked today in Iowa about the Shag Fund accusations against Rudy Giuliani, and for now he's declining to condemn Rudy. It's possible Romney doesn't want to look too negative in piling on in this case — or perhaps he just doesn't want to interfere while Rudy is busy treading water here. After all, staying silent will deprive Rudy of any plausible chance to blame his rivals for fanning the story.
"This is something the mayor is addressing and I think we ought to give him the opportunity to address that as he feels appropriate," Romney said. "I really don't have anything to say, or to add to the discussion other than, let's let him have an ample chance to look at the history and explain what he feels is needed."

Like Mitt really cares about Rudy. Mitt is trying to get votes and if he has to use Rudy so be it. Mitt will continue to use this until it's old news.
