The problem is that Romney has to figure out how to say this is bad, when he did a version of it himself in Mass.

And, sadly, no matter who is elected to drive the bus, it is headed to the same destination...only a matter of speed and route.

Romney has promised to repeal Obamacare. That’s what I know.
What’s the alternative at this point?

Easy, he says "It was the state of Massachusetts choice, the people of the state have the sovereign right to make that decision. The Federal government, on the other hand does not have that right to decide "FOR" the people. What else can they decide is "FOR" your best interests and constitutional? Gun haters, the US Constitution states that Defense is the responsibility of the Federal government. The SC ruling, today, just laid the ground work for some future government to say "It is in the best interests of national defense for everyone to have a gun. You don't have to buy one; if you don't though, we will tax you. The same can be said for going to a church, of any type. It is in the general welfare of the people that they be happy. Since people of faith tend to be more happy and content, everyone has to now attend some sort of church/religious service; if you don't, you will be taxed."

All Romney has to say is that his program was right for the SOVEREIGN STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS, but that implementing a one-size-fits-all version of the plan for the whole country is unconstitutional. States can do things that the fed can't, under our (former) system.

Having said that, we're boned. Fully. Anyone who thinks that our country's slide into full-blown socialism will be stopped by the ballot box is kidding himself. Either accept what must be done, or accept your slavery, and your children's slavery, and your grandchildren's slavery, etc. History is going to judge us as harshly as it judges the corrupt citizens of ancient Rome, or the German citizens in the 1930s
