    Fair or not, Romney's presser turned out to be bad politics.Injecting himself into the debate stepped on what had been a favorable narrative

        @mattklewis You can't possibly blame Romney for an out-of-control press looking for any distraction to provide cover...

        @AG_Conservative If you believe part of the job running a campaign is to drive a narrative and garner favorable press -- you can.

        @mattklewis Sure, but you can't possibly plan for it to be this blatant. Otherwise, there is never any point in ever commenting on events.

        @mattklewis You know what campaign reporters' narrative was yesterday? Terry Jones. Jackass filmmakers.

        @mattklewis Well after six, your rprtrs list was almost entirely critical of film, not Obama. Didn't move at all until WH disavowed embassy.

        @mattklewis Americans are dead and dragged through the street and the media talks about ROMNEY gaffes? What about O's bad foreign policy

        @SpunkyBraun That's my point. Media would be talking about Obama's foreign policy -- had Romney not injected himself into discussion.

        @mattklewis Media should talk about the failed policies and Romney the side story not the other way around.
