Sometimes you want someone to grab Romney by the lapels, shake him and scream “stop!”
The Washington Post reports:
“I think Americans recognize that if you are comparing two people based on how long you’ve been pro-life maybe that should pale in comparison with how are you going to be able to strengthen the dollars, improve our economy, get better jobs for Americans. . . [and] end illegal immigration,” he said.
He also stated, “I have always said I would like to be in the top three finishers[in Iowa]”
You wonder if a greater self-awareness and restraint wouldn’t go a long way. Politicians are selling themselves but you shouldn’t feel like you’re being asked to buy a ginsu knife or a “pre-owned” car. Contrast that to the self-effacing McCain performance on MTV.
