A staple of the Tampa Bay Times Sunday edition, part of its politics Buzz package, is its unveiling of the past week’s political “winner” and “loser.”
This Sunday’s “Winner of the week” was Marco Rubio. No, he wasn’t chosen Mitt Romney’s running mate, but, yes, he had “improved his image amid all the attention.” Etc.
“Loser of the week”? None other than Bob Buckhorn. A bit baffling in that it was noted that Tampa’s Democratic mayor was winning rave reviews from Republicans impressed with his “enthusiasm and help” leading up to the GOP convention. Say what?
Say “oops.” On Monday the Times published a correction. It seems that Mayor Bob actually had been chosen as one of the week’s political “winners.” Oh.
