Medved vs Hewitt

It’s on now:

Instead of using a truthful statement that would have made no impact on voters, [the Romney folks] used a hateful lie — that appears to have made little impact on voters.

As the Wall Street Journal editorialized today, Romney’s ill-advised attempt to demagogue the immigration issue and to “impersonate Tom Tancredo” has failed miserably, in Iowa and now in New Hampshire.

I happen to believe that Romney has fatally damaged his once-promising $100 million campaign by the flood of negative ads shamefully distorting the record of his various opponents.

Romney, who’s now desperate to pull out a last chance victory in Michigan, won’t apologize. But Hugh Hewitt, a fair-minded Republican leader of impeccable integrity, should offer that apology now.
