The Mitt Romney Most Cynical Use of False Issues Award Goes to…
Mitt Romney.
Just in time for Christmas, Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign has begun mailing out one of the more overtly negative attacks in New Hampshire, attacking rivals on immigration and looking to give them a black eye — literally.
A pamphlet sent to homes this week shows a landscape through a chain-link fence, with the words, “Our next president’s policies on illegal immigrants will define America for generations to come.”

On the same day voters were receiving the pamphlet, the New Hampshire Union Leader was criticizing Mr. Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, in a front-page editorial for employing illegal immigrants to care for his yard. The newspaper, which has endorsed Mr. McCain, asked how Mr. Romney could manage the country if he could not manage his own backyard.
Now, I think the whole “I caught someone mowing his yard who has brown skin” thing to be in bad taste. But Romney’s attempt to pin all of what American will mean in the future to an issue on which, honestly, he hasn’t shown an ounce of leadership is about as stupid a move as can be made. Of course, he isn’t aiming at the highbrow people.
