Republican strategist and Washington Post blogger Ed Rogers is not confident that Mitt Romney’s current honeymoon with the national press will continue much longer.Rogers writes:
The “news hole” for the 2012 presidential campaign is bigger than ever before, and Romney’s portion will be filled every day, regardless if he actually makes any news or not. It will be hard to have enough courtesy meetings with GOP leaders, give “major policy speeches,” and roll out fresh endorsements or campaign personnel to make enough real news to satisfy all the media. So look for campaign dramas and crises to create themselves. Little things will become big things and they will linger in the media until they are replaced by something else.
