A non-partisan explanation of Romney’s comments that reveals his history of a deep commitment to women’s equality

By Dave Andrusko I am only vaguely familiar with womensenews.org, but even a cursory glance tells you this is not the kind of blog that ordinarily would be the least bit friendly to Mitt Romney.

A real shocker: NY Times Profile of Romney treats with respect and insight

By Dave Andrusko http://twitter.com/daveha Okay, okay, your first thought was my first thought: something very hot is about to freeze over. Over the weekend the New York Times actually published a profile of Mitt Romney that treated him as a recognizably human being.

Pro-Life Ann Romney deftly handles “The View”

By Dave Andrusko It took me a couple of days to work up the courage to actually watch Ann Romney walk the gauntlet at “The View.” I should have had more faith. From the moment Mrs. Romney walked on the set, she exuded confidence and clearly was not about to be browbeaten by the likes …
