First instincts

Is Mitt Romney's first instinct to pander, when challenged by the press? This blogger thinks so: http://netrightdaily.com/2012/02/is-mitt-romney-out-of-touch/
Update: Steve McCann makes so many good points in this piece that I can only urge you to read more here: http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/02/two_bad_days_for_the_gop.html
Update 2: 
"What is so worrisome to me is not Romney’s words, which are relatively cogent to the rational audience. Rather, the indication that the media is so willing to distort an innocuous phrase to this extent, and the Romney campaign retreats.
It’s the appearance of spinelessness in the face of the the Postmodern media that moves the Not Mitt Romney crowd. Mitt has got to point out, loudly, this false propaganda mongering more or less daily, and not reprise John McCain’s complacency."
