You brought up the metaphor of the submarine skipper sinking the sub, and I had to laugh. However, it brought to mind what I call the sub-plot to this story. It is the question of who was the leaker of the sexual harassment story? And the finger is starting to point to the Mitt Romney team. If that is true, the tactics he is using may be the big issue. I do not see anything good coming out of it. It could be the real submarine skipper, Mitt Romney, sinking his submarine campaign for president over an episode of dirty tricks.
Good point. Maybe there are two submarine skippers in this race, along with another corpsman (Ron Paul) who can’t even swim.
That leaves us with Perry, and that’s alright. He can fly jets!
