...talk to any other Republican campaign about Romney, you will hear a mixture of venom and mocking disdain. The McCain and Huckabee camps, especially, really can't stand the guy; that much was clear this weekend when McCain tried his hardest to steer the conversation back from the economy to national security by claiming, without any real evidence, that Romney supported a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq.
