Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign is feeling pretty cocky one week away from the Iowa caucuses.
“The dynamics couldn’t be better for us,” an anonymous senior Romney strategist told John Heilemann in a profile of the campaign in New York Magazine. “I don’t see any scenario where we’re not the nominee.”
Heilemann writes that much has changed over the span of a month for Romney’s campaign because at “the start of December, this degree of self-assurance would have seemed not merely misplaced but a sign of mental illness.”
But if polls are any indication, it may still be a little premature for the Romney campaign to shoot off about how they’re going to clean up.
Editor: Well with one week to go, I guess we can just all forget about attending our own State’s primary voting because Romney has won without the first vote being cast.
