No. Romney is answering a question about essential qualities of a leader and Tom snipped this one quality as if it doesn't make sense. It makes sense to me when talking about one (of many) leadership qualities of a president or governor who would need support from members of an opposing party to push forward policy changes.<br><br><div><div id="ecxSkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="ecxstopSpelling">From: <a href="mailto:sunilramalingam@hotmail.com">sunilramalingam@hotmail.com</a><br>To: <a href="mailto:vision2020@moscow.com">vision2020@moscow.com</a><br>Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2012 05:32:43 -0700<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Say What?<br><br>

Could it have to do with Romney changing his positions on a number of issues to appeal to the far Right?<br><br><div><div id="ecxSkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="ecxstopSpelling">From: <a href="mailto:scooterd408@hotmail.com">scooterd408@hotmail.com</a><br>To: <a href="mailto:moscowcares@moscow.com">moscowcares@moscow.com</a>; <a href="mailto:vision2020@moscow.com">vision2020@moscow.com</a><br>Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2012 01:01:26 -0600<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Say What?<br><br>

Seems pretty straightforward / basic to me.
