Mitt Romney (R) will sign an antitax pledge supported by Americans for Tax Reform, the conservative group said Thursday.
Romney will sign the "Taxpayer Protection Pledge," the pledge drafted by conservative activist Grover Norquist, which has become somewhat of a litmus test for Republican candidates at all levels.
If you remember, Romney passed on the Susan B. Anthony list's abortion pledge, and hasn't immediately agreed to sign Jim DeMint's new demanding pledge.
I posted this Krauthammer clip a few days ago -- his point remains. Pledges are gimmicky gotchas.
