Default Romney camp in major damage control mode

Romney camp announces Romney will give individual interviews to every major television station ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and FOX this afternoon, to try and explain this current ... situation ... of being caught in multiple lies.

Romney has never done this before (he is press-adverse to non-FOX press). Interviews are supposed to be televised on evening newscasts.

Intrade has Romney 14% that he'll plead the 5th at some point.

I think his main worry is looking like a condescending arrogant jackass if the reporter actually questions him.

You mean like he did at the NAACP convention?

Why would you go into a place where 25% of the demographic will benefit from the ACA, and you tell them you'll take that healthcare away, and you call it the GOP slur, "Obamacare" to their faces for good measure?

'Cause you are cruising for "every vote"? ROFLMAO Hardly. You're being a deliberate douche.

I still think Mitt's team is more inept than cunning. Rove and Crossroads is cutthroat and nasty, but I think Mitt's guys are just incompetent. They've let this Bain thing drag on and on. It's amateur.

Romney just met with Cheney. Let's see what Mr. Evil Politics Cheney told him to do about this Bain disaster.

Probably tell him to shoot them in the face...

I can't wait to see how Romney explains this. This guy blatantly lies more than any presidential candidate I've seen, even John Edwards. And the reason Romney is lying about this is so stupid ... it's simply so the Obama campaign can't nail him for outsourcing jobs to China, and to try avoiding to show his tax returns. He's denying he was CEO of Bain when Bain did nasty stuff.

Of course, when you can't run on your achievements as Governor of a state you didn't really live in, all that's left is, "I'm a good businessman". He was a good investment manager. He didn't develop companies - he created profit for investors. Different thing.

4:30 headlines: more outright proof Romney has lied:

Signed Docs Show Romney Doing Bain Work
