Anti-Thompson site run by Romney donor

Not too shocking:

The owner of the web-host provider used to launch an anti-Fred Thompson website is a donor to Mitt Romney's campaign.

Matt Heaton, President and CEO of Utah-based bluehost.com, gave $500 to Romney in June.

Until earlier today, his company hosted the domain "phoneyfred.org" that included a trove of personal and political opposition research on Thompson. But after I disclosed the anti-Thompson site just after Noon, the site came down.
It's in Romney's best interest for Thompson to leave the race. Why wouldn't a supporter help?
