Mitt Romney’s inner circle to abruptly expand

New voices, new needs for the general election

Often secretive and always loyal, Romney’s advisers now face their ultimate test: transitioning from a relatively small circle that steered Romney through bruising primaries to become the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, to a group that is expected to grow far larger in just a matter of weeks in order to reset the campaign for a general election fight against President Obama.

Romney wonders why he has a woman problem? Here's why. If your article is accurate, among Romney's top advisors, there are 12 men and 1 woman. (Not counting his wife!) Any man who claims to be pro-woman and surrounds himself almost entirely with men has no interest in or understanding of equality for women. This list is a disgrace in the year 2012. I will vote for the candidate who believes in equality for women and acts on it. Having a wife who is a woman does not substitute for treating women as equals in the workplace. This guy is a throw back to the 50s. You want my vote? Then surround yourself with a team of people who looks like the workforce of the United States: 50% women and 30% minorities. Please, stop insulting the intelligence of women.

Oh dear, what is going on? "Mitt Romney's inner circle to abruptly expand" is a split infinitive! Did the English language change or is someone at the Globe not paying attention? Shouldn't it be "Mitt Romney's inner circle to expand abruptly"?

nnnnn - how many blacks on O's campaign?
