Game Change Hack Admits Press Against Romney

JOHN HEILEMANN: This goes to a point that Mark and I have both made repeatedly. I think part of that has to do with the fact that Mitt Romney's relationship with the press is as bad as it is. The press has never liked him. They pick on him. They obviously have a rooting interest in keeping this thing going in the horse race way. But the truth is that the national press wants to seize on mistakes he makes, they want to seize on examples of his inauthenticity--and that's another way in which he's like Al Gore. The snake-bit-ness comes, partly, as a media relations problem.
