the man is charmelessly naive.
Today he devotes precious column space to a hypothetically broadminded and tolerant speech that his hero Mitt Romney should have given on Sunday at the Tremont Temple Baptist Church.
You would think that after four years and four different positions on abortion along with the Governor's superficial stunt driven style of governance, Mitt's undisguised loathing for the Commonwealth and the systematic looting of the average voter via various fees that Brian McGrory would somehow finally get it.
Mitt Romney is a selfish disdainful man who'd no more tell off the savage hordes of social conservatism than he'd deny the divine origin of Joseph Smith and the golden plates.
Brian just doesn't get that Romney will happily call for the mass deportation of all gays if it means a runaway triumph in the South Carolina Primary. The Governor won't actually deliver on that promise (Mitt is far to opportunistic to go that far) but he'll damn well say anything of the lowest crudest and most repellant variety to win.
Naivete' is sort of cute in charming in young children and the like, but it is an appalling quality in a supposedly hard boiled state house based columnist.
Humble Elias doesn't even get angry anymore when pundits like Brian McGrory toady up to hopeless second rate yaps like Mitt Romney, I just get disgusted that is all.
