emilyisobsessed: lol It’s worth mentioning that copy editors write op-ed headlines some of the time. (FWIW, op-ed page editors will also remove sentences and even change words; they send you a mark-up of what they’re going to do with a submission, but if it’s late in the news cycle a writer might only have a half-hour to see the edits.) I don’t know why the Romney campaign isn’t just blaming some copy-editor for that headline. I guess — sarcasm alert — that would make their historical statements seem contradictory.
