Romney: Too Wimpy for the White House?

Charles Dharapak

Dodging reporters, fearing his base, hiding his taxes—is Mitt Romney just too insecure to be president? In this week's Newsweek (on sale tomorrow), Michael Tomasky surveys a history of presidential manliness and asks just where Mitt Romney would fit amid the studly swagger of Dubya and Reagan. Plus, watch Romney respond to the "wimp" cover on Face the Nation this morning.

SYRIA

2. Noose Tightens in Aleppo

Rebel forces said that the Syrian military continued to close in on the populous city of Aleppo on Sunday. Tanks and attack helicopters have reportedly encircled parts of the city, mounting raids on areas held by the rebels. President Bashar al-Assad’s forces are weaker than they look, however, said defecting general Mohammad Al-Zobi, who claimed that a paucity of petrol and other supplies may cause the Army’s onslaught to collapse. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan called for an international response to the assault on Syria’s second-most-important city, which both Assad loyalists and opposition fighters have portrayed as a decisive showdown.

This may hurt. The planned expansion of insurance coverage under the health-care law could mean a shortfall of M.D.s in some parts of the country—and there’s not much we can do in the short term, experts say. But the problem isn’t new. Even without the Affordable Care Act, America was projected to be about 100,000 doctors short by 2025. Health-care experts have said that the new law will exacerbate the “invisible problem” of dwindling docs, arguing that while patients will still get the care they need, the process to do so will become more arduous.

ISRAEL

5. Press Barred From Romney Meeting

Members of the media will be locked out of a meeting scheduled for Mitt Romney and deep-pocketed donors at Israel’s King David hotel on Monday. In the past, a small number of press members have been allowed access to fundraising meetings held in public locations. The meeting is part of the presumptive Republican nominee’s tour of the country, which has included meetings with Israeli leaders—as well as carefully worded critiques of President Obama’s foreign policy. On Sunday, a top Romney adviser told The Associated Press that Romney would back an Israeli strike aimed at stopping Iran from forwarding its nuclear ambitions. Romney is scheduled to give a speech on Iran later Sunday.
