Does Romney Think Before Speaking?
Does Romney Think Before Speaking? by MSW. MGB: Romney is a sock puppet who needs to find better handlers. This was not a problem of shooting from the hip, it is about having a staff whose first love is to the boss and not the country. This campaign desperately needs an adult in the room to stop such obvious mistakes from happening - and that adult needs to have the ability to fire people, including long time Romney loyalists, if they continue to show disregard for the facts. Not only can the media see through such things, but so can the voters. There is an episode of the West Wing where the staff was having a bad day and Leo sets them right by getting them to see that they all serve at the pleasure of the President - meaning no one is to important on their own or too close to the candidate to be let go. Romney needs to take a lesson. He can start with Etch-a-Skech guy and whomever is pushing the no apology meme.
