Yesterday Mitt Romney stepped on British toes by raising doubts about how well the Olympics will go in London. I was impressed by two things: the immediate ferocious power of the British press to lash out and blow relatively unimportant remarks into big loud balloons of indignation, and the notion that if Romney can’t visit a foreign country for a half day without insulting a large part of its population, he’s going to have a hard time in later stages of his presidential campaign. I have to confess I’m looking forward with relish to an impressive string of gaffes, poor judgment calls, and episodes of very public clumsiness (forgetting Ed Milliband’s name yesterday was a good start).
