Paul Begala on Romney: Once a Bully, Always a Bully

4. Not at all. Although Im not surprised by the first few replies

makes it easy to demonize Romney. It's what the right does to us all the time. But it's still bullshit if someone on the left does it.

I used to bully the shit out of people when I was young. What Romney did is assault, so lets call it that. A bully is that kid from A Christmas story. I bullied people so I could feel in control, because when I was bullied, I felt just about helpless and scared.

Thankfully I was raised well enough to eventually realize that behavior is not appropriate and not the person I want to be.

It's basically called growing up. Ive seen quotes on Maddow from people who were there, and they seem to have grown up. Romeny is giving every indication that he still has the mentality he did when he was 18. I sure dont.
