Plouffe: Press wanted ‘the Romney comeback story’

Aboard President Obama’s plane, adviser David Plouffe argued that Mitt Romney’s victory in the debate was in part the product of a media desire for a certain narrative. “You guys may disagree with me,” he told the media he was critiquing, but “people are itching to write the Romney comeback story.” Plouffe said it would only be a true comeback if Romney’s poll numbers in key battlegrounds improve.
