TMZ reports that the Massachusetts case in which Gloria Allred will seek to unseal the records and lift the gag order on Wednesday involves the divorce between Staples co-founder Tom Stemberg, a big Romney supporter, and his first wife Maureen. It appears that Allred currently represents Maureen.
Stemberg spoke at the Republican Convention in support of Mitt.
Mitt gave a deposition and testified at the trial in the Stemberg divorce, which apparently was quite protracted and nasty.
But how would this hurt Romney?
I have no idea, we have to wait and see. He could have said stuff against Maureen that would hurt him with women in general. Right now the race comes down to how well Mitt can do among women.
That would be my guess, that he defamed her.
Good point.
