Romney and the Secret Service say goodbye

It’s been a long, trying campaign for Mitt Romney but even when he was under fire by Republicans, one group of guys and gals always had his back.

Since Feb. 1 the Secret Service has shadowed Romney during rallies, fundraisers and even breaks at the beach. They crammed in elevators with him and guarded his hotel door as he slept at night. Now, after nine months of faithful service, they said goodbye and left him on his own.

Romney team accidentally posts victory site

Romney’s eager-beaver team accidentally posted an updated victory site complete with a smiling headshot of the former governor yesterday. Oops.

The new site quickly was taken down but not before Political Wire’s Taegan Goddard snapped a slew more screenshots for posterity.

Check out photos of the transition site here.
