Gov. Mitt Romney said the woman was claustrophobic and became so upset she had to be restrained, and passengers said Mayo appeared to have emotional problems.

Where did he get the idea that she was claustrophobic? None of that description sounds like claustrophobia to me. She's a looney tune but I don't know that claustrophobia is what's going on. This statement of Romney's bothers me.

I have a friend that is soooooooo claustrophobic she requires maximum drugs on a flight or boat. She has NEVER come close to doing anything like this woman did.
Sounds like BS to me.

If she were claustrophobic she would have freaked out at the beginning of the flight and Not 7 hours later. She is psychotic not claustrophobic.

Yeah, it is like he is trying to whitewash any connection to being a looney Muslim, and instead blaming it on being claustrophobic.

Me, too.

Ditto that. Why would a claustrophobic spend half the flight holed up in those tiny airplane lavatories?
