For all his faults, Freud did nail down "slips of the tongue" as a significant phenomena that is rarely, if ever, random. So when Romney's unconscious tells us that he is here to bring people together to "serve" problems, not to "solve" them, we should pay attention. And why did he introduce Paul Ryan as "the next President of the United States?"
