anyway...

The Romneys found themselves in Chester with TWO appearances that conflicted so she took one and he, the other. This article was about the venue that Mrs. Romney covered.

The article went on for several columns and even continued to another page. It was such a refreshing thing to see how journalism used to be practiced.

At the very end of the article, the writer commented that it was almost a shame that SHE was not running, since her explanations, answers and ideas were better than her husband, the candidate.

I could never figure out how to copy anything from the article.
