65. That makes absolute sense.

He's a definite "Cluster B" personality disorder type, with psychopathic and narcissistic traits.

And yes I know that the current DSM doesn't acknowledge psychopathy as a personality disorder--the closest equivalent is Antisocial. However, there is a significant literature on psychopathy as a personality trait (e.g. Hare, or in the political arena, Robert Alterman), and Romney's rich-boy background pretty much precludes the Antisocial Dx because his family's money & position kept him out of legal trouble. Anyway, the conscienceless exploitation of others, the viewing of other people as objects that are not really human, etc. are consistent with psychopathy, and the demands that others bow to his whims rage we see when they don't, are very consistent with narcissism.
