Romney demands Obama cease Bain attacks

[Retrograde]

37. Is it because the trees aren't the right height?

Has Romney ever come out with a policy statement other than "It's our turn"?

Given what I know about his background, I really think this is one of the very few times that people are standing up to him and telling him he does not automatically get what he wants right now. Growing up with Gov. Daddy to smooth the way, getting the cushy mission in Paris because of pull in the Mormon establishment, the no-risk-to-him job at Bain - I see a person who's never had to fight his way into something, who always had friends backing him. Now he's up on a very visible stage and his business and church buddies, try though they may, can't do all that much to help him.

ETA: he's always operated within a fairly rigid hierarchy, and he's been lucky to be in the higher rungs of those hierarchies. Having people talk back to him must be a novelty.
