Is HotAir.com using words like Mittmentum and Romtastic?
Well, the answer is yes. And I’ve got a screen capture to prove it:
We posted the same two stories here today that are mentioned in the picture above:
Romtastic: Guess what book is going to top the March 21st New York Times best-seller list?
Mittmentum: Romney Garners 31% Lead Over Huckabee, Palin in Early Florida Poll
Hot Air‘s use of these words are a little surprising to me as they don’t frequently blog about Romney, let alone report good news about him. The author of these two posts, Allahpundit, as well as most of his readers are clearly leaning towards the Palin camp. In fact one of those starts off as a positive post (only after mentioning the book won’t sell more than Sarah’s) then quickly turns to pointing Romney’s branding faults (or something.)
Anyway, my point was not to talk down HotAir.com, but to show the magnitude of the good news for Mitt as evidenced by his two appearances there. In fact, I should clarify: I’m a daily visitor to HotAir.com because it is a great site. Allahpundit is a great writer who’s full of insight and wit. I just sometimes weary of the “All Sarah, all the time” environment. But then again they are a business, and I’m sure posts about her bring in the visitors, so I don’t blame them.
I’m just glad to see a little more coverage of Romney there.
