Romney and an AP reporter had words over the candidate's statement that lobbyists aren't running his campaign at an event in Columbia, S.C. The reporter interupted to point out that Ron Kaufman, a senior advisor, is a lobbyist.

The reporter should have told his 'press secretary' to go .... himself.
Act professionally = Eat your curd sheeple and know your place. NEVER EVER question the patriarch again.
This is so laughable not that Romney got called on his BS but that he was flabergasted by anyone speaking up to him, and a simpleton stenograph
Awesome! Challenge authority, especially when they try to spin the truth.
Maybe the press will grow a pair this year.
Yeah! "Act professionally!" Doesn't he know his job is to swallow bullsh*t whole and regurgitate it. That's *professionalism*. ...at least what passes for it in current American journalism.
Romney won here (in Mich) because he only said what some folks wanted to hear. He has no plan, no ideas and nothing but a 70's game-show hairdo. Why some people believe that, I dunno. None of the idiots did very much here except Romney, who blasted his tired TV ads around and mumbled something about jobs and feeling pain and some crap. How anyone believes this guy is beyond me.
Yeah because the MSM has been soooo friendly to Mitt Romney. Remember Wyoming? Yeah me neither. Ron Kaufman is not even a paid adviser.
Great - a reporter finally stands up to a candidate, and other reporters try to slap him down.
Good luck with the media America.
Try stupid. It's a better fit.
Isn't Kaufman married Andrew Card's sister?
we need a lot more of that all over.
Act profession
LOVE IT!
NEED MORE REPORTERS LIKE HIM!
I love how Romney's press secretary tells the AP reporter to "act professionally"!! What he means is: act like all the other media people.. take our candidate on his word and DO NOT under ANY circumstances challenge what he just said!! Especially in public! How DARE YOU!!
Methinks the candidate doth protest too much!
