Why should he? He's not a socially conservative hypocrite.
Mitt Romney is the guy who goes around avoiding meetings in obscure pizza restaurants because one of the founders was a sex offender.
How'd he miss this one?

beh....
I can recall when the Catholic Church Diocese inherited a XXX theater in St. Louis. Took 'em 5 years to get it closed.
You have to wonder, sometimes, if such 'donations' are made just as a potential 'gotcha'. you know.....
Political Hack: "Yo ! Charlie ! Here's $2,500 in cash and a box of cigarettes if you 'donate' the cash to this politician's campaign"
Charles Manson: "Helter Skelter Man ! I'll DO it !"

The man we are talking about, the guy who owns Penthouse, IS a Wall Street guy. He's a private equity manager like Romney was. And Romney is already the leader among recipients of Wall Street money.
And Romney's blind trust contained millions in Freddie Mac stock, which his embarrassed trustee had to unload.

The inconvenient difference is that Obama WAS in position to make the difference when bought by both, Freddie Mac and Wall Street.
The inconvenient difference is that Obama DID what he was paid to do, for both, Freddie Mac and Wall Street.
By taking pornography money do you really expect Romney to force you to buy pornography?....

Difference?
What are you expecting Mitt Romney to do about Wall Street, other than undo the reforms put in place over the past 3 years?
