Joe Posnanski wanders around a bookstore, and what should he see?
Mitt Romney has a new book called "No Apology." I was not aware that people were demanding apologies from Mitt Romney, but apparently he will not give them the satisfaction.
I first see the Mitt Romney book in the "New Releases" section with all the other new books that have grand hopes of gracing the New York Times best-seller list. Later, I see "No Apology" again ... in the bargain books section. Here it is selling for $5.98. This feels like some sort of grand mistake, but apparently it is not because there are a half dozen there, all marked down. It is, the first straight to bargain section book I can ever remember.
Maybe the title refers to the publisher's official stance about people who paid full price.

I hate to be flippant but Romney should apologize for his hair. I distrust a man with a "kiss me quick" haircut. That is one reason i can not stomach the Gov of Texas.
Is it even possible to be flippant when talking about the superficiality of our campaign process? (I used to bemoan it, now I embrace it!)
I do know what you mean about the Willard 'do. I used to call him the Grecian Formula model ("just a dignified touch of gray").
I never did see what the late great Molly Ivins or anyone else saw in Rick Perry's hair, though. Always seemed like your basic mop to me. But I do love the expression you used -- "a 'kiss me quick' haircut." Gonna have to remember that one.
