Doesn’t The Secret Service have the responsibility of maintaining the security of the bus? Were they out partying? This is serious, especially after the dim a-holes were running the video last month of Romney’s bus exploding.
Does anyone know when Secret Service protection start for a candidate other than the President?
Well, looks the poor guys can’t be in two places at once! They can’t be out party-ing with hookers AND still protect a Presidential candidate!
My intuitive take is that the Secret Service has responsibility for Romney and his family's personal physical protection. But since Romney himself was nowhere near the vandalized bus at the time of the incident, nor had planned to ride on the bus, it was not within the scope of the Secret Service's mandate. Rather, the likely problem was insufficient security within the campaign itself.
