Jim Milles. Quotes and miscellanea with the occasional photo.
The incident of hair assault revealed this week that led colleague Bruce Handy to dub Romney “the Demon Barber of Cranbrook” shows the mark of a bully, part of a pattern that goes from strapping his dog to a car roof to “I like to fire people.” But I think that Romney as bully misses something larger about the political, public man: He’s a coward. He’s never gone against the grain, stood up for an underdog or advanced an unpopular cause before it became popular, risked a single gleaming hair off his head, shone any backbone apart from the determination to win, tapped into anything larger than himself, risen to the moment. His selfishness is such that you think conservatives would appreciate him more, since that’s their driving ethos. He may have to show some of that old nasty Cranbrook spirit if he truly wants to win their love.
