“The idea that somehow we should reduce the number of audits … and that’s going to make us more money is simple, clear, and 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠.” - @SenatorRomney
Judging from comments to this tweet, for years before now Romney toed the Republican line and supported cuts to the IRS budget.

Assuming that's correct, he's entitled to only a tiny smidgeon of credit for this obviously correct statement.

His reputation for being a reasonable goo-goo politician is mostly undeserved.

Between the Senate and the House, I think there are dozens walking away and leaving it to the magats. Not too sure about the Senate, but there are a lot of reps leaving. Cowards, all of them.
