It contained a tantalizing and thought-provoking little paragraph that raised the question of what kinds of demands those on the hard right are going to make of Romney, should he become the nominee. There is also the related question of how far he might go to assuage them. Such is their mistrust, and such (so far) is his pliability, that it’s worth pondering the potentially unprecedented dance of demand and acquiescence that we might witness this fall.
