Romney finished well in his answer to the question of how he’d run against Hillary. But he started badly. He said, in effect, that he’d run against Hillary and not her husband. I think he was trying to sound high-minded. But Russert stipulated in the question that they were running as a team. That gave him an opening to really tee-off on the spectacle of the Clinton campaign and show that he was ready to run against both of them. He could have had fun with it.
