A week ago today a 'new user' anneonymous670 posted a stream of diaries claiming they were of Mitt Romney at a private fundraising meeting. They were hidden almost immediately as they should have been, but true to his/her word the full version was released to David Corn and Huff Po has picked up on the video as well.
It is front page news on Huff Po right now

WASHINGTON -- The overwhelming majority of voters who back President Barack Obama do so because they are "dependent on government" and "believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing," Mitt Romney told a closed-door gathering of about 30 major donors earlier this year, according to video of the event that has surfaced on the Internet.
The person who uploaded a series of potentially inflammatory videos from the fundraiser has claimed authorship of them in an email exchange with The Huffington Post. The source said he or she wishes to remain anonymous for professional reasons and to avoid a lawsuit. The videos, which have created a buzz on the Internet, were blurred and at times blacked out to obscure the location of the filming, the source said.
"I have obviously degraded the quality to attempt to camo the location," said the clandestine filmmaker. The original, which has not been posted in full, is very high quality, the source said.
If this can be confirmed as Rmoney, this will be very damaging to his campaign.
It smelled fishy to me last Monday, but today it just appears a bit more real.
