Romney Ventures Into OC

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney brought his Republican presidential campaign to Orange County a few days ago without much attention from the mainstream media, bloggers complain. Still, the Orange Juice blog gave Romney's fund-raising speech a mixed review: "In his presentation, the governor identified five key areas that the next president must face but I did not hear any real solutions."

Flashreport.org has an exclusive interview with Romney, and video. Among the Big Media, NBC4 covered his California trip, concluding that his "campaign for the GOP presidential nomination is drawing criticism for 'flip-flops' on issues dear to the party's conservative base." And Romney gave a nationally televised interview from Los Angeles on Thursday from Larry King's CNN studio.
