told The Los Angeles Times that it had actually been the Occupy activists that began the "U-S-A!" chant that Romney supporters later joined them.

During recent weeks, the Romney team has made a campaign tactic out of bullying protesters.

In early January, the candidate shouted that a group of activists should "get a job!"

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) responded to one woman who interrupted a Romney event by saying, "You know, something may go down tonight, but it ain’t gonna be jobs, sweetheart."

Most recently, Romney scolded an Occupy activist for asking him how his policies would help the 99 percent.
