Clashing Narratives AKA the Sanitation of Mitt Romney

The tide in the affairs of people exists Like all tides there exists a counter-tide Out of the clash of tides comes what we might call results
We are seeing the tide of journalistic myopia meet the tide of aggressive truth-telling regarding Mitt Romney And we are seeing a clash of two narratives The current GOP narrative is that everything that points to the truth about Mitt Romney is a fabrication of a Chicago hit mob  so set on maintaining power it would actually say nasty things about our Teflon candidate to hide its own sins But underneath nothing has changed but the passage of time unless you want to acknowledge that things are actually improving
The myopic media is now acting as though Mitt Romney is no longer a pathological liar no longer the man who helped usher in a capitalism  that builds nothing and turns money into compensation for destruction And so forth and so on Romney no longer equals risk He has become Legit
Remember W and the effort to warn people about him Bush became Legit and Dan Rather was crucified And we passively accepted that because  our own inner mythology mechanism  is nothing if not compensatory
BUT
This year regarding Romney the next few weeks will tell the tale If we do not want to end up with the same queasy feeling whenever W did anything  we will do our best to warn with truth
That is exactly what I started this campaign with when Romney was rolling to  primary victories on a sea of destruction money Romney is a risk beyond Bush's imagination The GOP has become the foreign power they tell us Obama represents The best way to understand the GOP is to assume that they are doing whatever they are screaming about
