Mitt Romney camp dodges Nevada calendar-tampering charge - Alexander Burns - POLITICO.com

Mitt Romney's campaign declined to confirm or deny a report that the GOP presidential candidate lobbied Nevada Republicans to hold a rule-breaking January presidential caucus.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Thursday that Romney's camp had urged the state GOP to schedule its 2012 nominating contest earlier than Republican National Committee rules allow.

A spokeswoman for Romney's campaign wouldn't address the claims in the story, which quoted former Nevada Gov. and RNC member Bob List as its source.
