Ed Gillespie defends Mitt Romney
Ed Gillespie on Sunday defended Mitt Romney for seeking an extension to file his 2011 tax return, calling the move ``not out of the ordinary'' while accusing President Barack Obama's campaign of trying to ``distract'' from more important issues by focusing on the candidate's tax records.
Mitt Romney endorsed Sen. John McCain, one of the former Massachusetts governor's main competitors for the 2008 Republican presidential nomination, for re-election to the US Senate on Tuesday.
