In between 3:40 pm and 7:32 pm today I received 14 different press releases at the same email address from Team Romney, 11 of them literally in a 62 minute time span between 6:09 and 7:11 pm.
I’ve heard of trying to keep folks informed, but did the Romney Press Shop want me to watch the debate or read their barrage? After the fifth one, it became drivel, quickly going to the trash. I’m not exactly a big John McCain partisan, but excessiveness is not becoming the Romney camp. I don’t know whether to think he’s grasping at straws or be embarrassed by the clumsiness of such a "media effort."

Great post Barry
I got the same 14 emails, mostly attacking John McCain. I guess this is the cyber-spin room. If the negativity continues for the next week it is going to doom the Romney campaign.
They are going to get rolled by the positive momentum of Giuliani & Schwarzenegger endorsements. Romney needs a big play to pull this off, not 14 emails to bloggers.
