This has to be a pretty traumatic experience for someone with Romney's wealth and power [View all]

He is not used to being talked to like the punk he is. You can bet this is a first. The way he demanded an apology so fast tells me he is used to demanding apologies from underlings for petty stuff and getting one right away.

Being dissed publicly does something to the minds of people who are used to being completely respected and getting whatever they want when they demand it. He is used to Yes, Mr. Romney. Or No Mr. Romney. He is not used to being called a possible felon on national TV.

He is out of his league here. And I think even he is starting to realize it.

Anyone else think about this?
