Default Romney to stop mentioning ex-Navy SEAL in speeches

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...a-in-speeches/

I have often wondered if any of those people mentioned by politicians (of all parties) in their "homey" little references ever object to the references; apparently some do object. This is the first I can remember. Going back to the Reagan days, when he would mention meeting someone on the campaign trail, or receiving a letter from someone, or some other "contact" he had with some "ordinary citizen", poliitcians have made almost a cliche to bring up these little vingnettes of how they are "in touch" with average Joe Citizen in some way or another. It has gotten to the point of being almost trite...

One thing is probably sure: the Romney campaign operative who failed to vet the source and get permission from the subject is now looking for another job...
