Mitt under attack by own party: Mass. GOP aims to sink prez bid
By Jessica Heslam
Boston Herald Media Reporter
A Web-based “truth” squad is poised to chase Mitt Romney in an effort
to trip him up on the presidential campaign trail - and its members
are Republicans from his very own Bay State.
Founded by GOP consultants Holly Robichaud and Ron Vining, the Mass
Republicans for Truth plans to launch a nationwide attack on the
former governor’s record - including radio and TV ads.
“He’s running for the highest office in the nation and voters need to
know the entire record,” said Robichaud.
“We can’t elect an unknown quantity to president of the United
States.”
The group will post “The Romney Report” on its website on Monday,
vowing to expose his flip-flops on a host of key issues, from abortion
to taxes to gay rights.
Calling its mission “educational,” the group is one of the
controversial political action committees labeled “527s” named after
the federal tax exemption that allows them to exist primarily as
vehicles to influence elections.
So far, about 40 Massachusetts Republicans, including elected state
committee members and activists who have been involved in campaigns
for years, have joined Massachusetts Republicans for Truth.
Robichaud, a contributor to the Herald’s Monday political briefing,
said she would not yet identify the other members.
The group’s website goes live Monday.
The website, www.MassRepublicansforTruth.com which is still under
construction, promises “The Romney Report” will assess Romney’s
performance as governor in several key areas.
“Perhaps the answers to these important questions are a secret in some
parts of the country, but they certainly are NOT to the Republicans in
his ‘home’ State of Massachusetts,” the site says.

Saw this in this morning's paper. The funny thing is that Robichaud is a
real wingnut, whose commentary during last year's gubernatorial race was
notable for be wrong almost every time.
