When Romney was talking to Univision America radio, Romney claimed to have never met with Kobach, one of his top advisors on immigration policy, and a man whose endorsement Romney has been eager to tout. Later, however, the campaign said Romney’s remarks weren’t … what’s the word … true.
“A spokesman for the Romney campaign said Romney and Kobach have, in fact, met before at campaign events — but not in formal policy meetings,” CNN wrote. “The aide said that in Monday’s radio interview, Romney was referring to policy meetings, which Kobach does not participate in.”
