The press is doing to Romney the same thing it did to John Kerry, and to Al Gore before him: Covering him as a loser. A weird loser. A distant loser, who is “uncomfortable in his own skin” and “failing to connect” with “regular voters.” The contempt and pity for him as a candidate is almost palpable, and each moment in the campaign is distorted imperceptibly, as if by magnetism, to reinforce the Romney caricature. Yes, Mitt Romney Is Getting a Raw Deal From the Press ☀
