And unlike Bush, Romney is actually a very smart, focused leader. As I’ve said here on FR any number of times in recent weeks ... like him or not, Mitt Romney may be the most capable, effective executive to run for the White House in our nation’s history.
I've always thought he should be (on paper credentials) and since he's come out swinging he has taken the high ground and shown himself to be exactly what you describe. Of course, it didn't hurt him a bit to name Paul Ryan as his running mate.
