The heavy fire conservatives are directing at Mitt Romney shows no sign of abating. Today's Boston Globe reports that at a gathering in New Hampshire yesterday Romney took a grilling about his views from conservatives in the audience, some of whom left the event even less persuaded of the authenticity of his conservativism than they'd been when they arrived.

"When I first heard his answer about his journey of becoming prolife, I began to feel better about the questions being asked of him lately," Shannon McGinley of Bedford, N.H., told the Globe. "After talking with him in person, though, it is hard to figure out what he does believe."

Romney's expected to announce his political plans in January.
