Romney gives McCain talking points
If Mitt Romney isn't auditioning to be John McCain's running mate, he's doing a rather good impersonation.
On National Journal On Air today, Romney strongly defended McCain's tax cut policies and promoted his promises to slice spending.
The former Massachusetts governor also took a whack at Democratic front-runner Barack Obama, saying that recent controversies are showing who he really is and calling him inexperienced and a "quintessential politician."
"Now we're getting a better view of Barack Obama as not just the liberal, but the political liberal that he is," said Romney, who is campaigning for McCain and has said he would be honored to be asked to be the vice presidential nominee.
