Romney's Day Gets Rougher

[Sam Brownback] is not the only one interested in shining a light on former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney's "[flip-flops](http://www.nypress.com/19/52/news&columns/JohnDeSio.cfm)."

The Democratic National Committee chose to honor Romney's official announcement that he would run for president today by [highlighting a number of issues] where Romney has moved from the center to the right. Included are stem-cell research and abortion, among others.

"Smooth talking Mitt Romney's lackluster announcement confirms why he has a bumpy road ahead of him," said Democratic National Committee spokesman Damien LaVera. "Voters have already figured out that Romney is a smooth talker whose only true commitment is to saying whatever he thinks people want to hear so he can get elected. That's hardly the kind of leadership the American people are looking for."
