Not much of a story one way or the other. But I do find it interesting in how it reflects a certain generational/cultural change. That is, what Romney did seems undoubtedly innocuous to folks his age. To me, taking a photo of myself at such a scene would never even remotely occur to me. Such a thought would strike me as rather weird. Going further, no way on earth would my parents and their generational peers think to do something like this, as they’d assuredly view it as a rather tacky and self-absorbed thing to do.
Like I said, interesting as a reflection of how the culture has changed.
Indeed, but I would say that, thankfully, not all young people view his decision to have himself photographed as their peers do; there are still young conservatives who would rather do a good deed and go on about their lives, than to do a good deed and trumpet it tackily.
