Hmmm.
Hucksterism isn't exactly new as it's been used to a greater or lesser degree for decades if not centuries here in the US.
Remember Kerry in 2004? "I'm gonna get me ...". It takes a special level of cluelessness to do that sort of nonsense.
Romney is not the only politician to die on a mole hill. See links at http://terriermandotcom.blogspot.com/2007/04/mitt-romney-fires-aims-and-flip-flops.html
P.
Really interesting how politicians, despite the new forced accountability of YouTube (etc), will try to present themselves as people they are not. I'm actually writing my senior thesis at Bard College now on how the Internet is having an effect on the flavor of political discourse in this country. If you're interested, I'd love to hear some of your thoughts: http://inewsproject.com/ thanks. best of luck. -tanner
