With all due respect to President Obama, Mitt Romney is no Jeremy Lin.
Romney, scion of a heavyweight businessman and politician, enjoyed a life of power, privilege and prestige en route to becoming the GOP presidential nominee. Lin, the son of a computer engineer who emigrated from Taiwan, overcame rejection from major colleges and numerous NBA teams en route to becoming an international superstar.
But I understand where Obama was coming from in using a basketball analogy to compare his re-election effort with Romney’s campaign. According to a New York Times story on the president’s competitive nature, in February Obama was asked about the election and likened it to the raging “Linsanity” that enthralled the nation until cooling drastically after a trip to South Beach.
