Romney Leads in Ill Will Among G.O.P. Candidates
WHY???
NYT-At the end of the Republican presidential debate in New Hampshire this month, when the Democrats joined the candidates on stage, Mitt Romney found himself momentarily alone as his counterparts mingled, looking around a bit stiffly for a companion.
The moment was emblematic of a broader reality that has helped shape the Republican contest and could take center stage again on Thursday at a debate in Florida. Within the small circle of contenders, Mr. Romney has become the most disliked.
With so much attention recently on the sniping between Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama on the Democratic side, the almost visceral scorn directed at Mr. Romney by his rivals has been overshadowed.
Listen to Romney get his offstage cue during Thursday night’s GOP debate.

Chris,
I heard that last night and wondered why MSNBC did not address it afterwards…whether it was another candidate or indeed a Romney aide providing backstage assistance.
In that clip, doesn’t the “whisper” say, “you raise taxes?” Then he says, “I’m not going to raise taxes?”
