'Thanks for admitting Romney was right': David Axelrod's memory jogged after Putin criticism

This morning, David Axelrod said that some people in DC are eating their words:

Remember not long ago when some folks in DC were almost in awe of Putin's moxy and cunning? He's not looking so slick now.

Really? Remember also not too long ago when a certain president and his administration running for re-election mocked Mitt Romney for saying Russia remained the United States’ number one geopolitical foe?

@davidaxelrod @jimgeraghty Remember when some politicians dismissed Russia as a threat? Not looking so smart now.

@davidaxelrod Recall not long ago as folks saying Russia = biggest foe were mocked for being in a Mad Men time warp? https://t.co/7MOoLlP9mB

What could be the solution to the problem with Putin?

@davidaxelrod We just need to be more flexible with him
