Romney Was Right GOP Nominee's Predictions Coming True
Free Beacon ^ | 11/13/13 | David Rutz

President Barack Obama’s second term is off to a woeful start, plagued by deceit, scandal, and standoffs—and Governor Mitt Romney saw a lot of it coming last fall in his unsuccessful bid for the White House.

Romney warned at the first presidential debate that Obamacare would be fully installed and cause many to lose their health insurance plans should Obama be re-elected.

Romney was hardly the first Republican to see that coming, but President Obama pledged at the same debate, as he had dozens of times before, that Americans could keep their health insurance if they liked it under the Affordable Care Act.

Now that his promise has been fully debunked, Obama actually apologized last week to Americans who had their plans dropped. Millions have already lost coverage, and the number is expected to continue rising, particularly with the employer mandate not even fully implemented yet.

Romney was also ridiculed by the Obama campaign in 2012 for declaring Russia the nation’s “No. 1 geopolitical foe,” with Obama quipping that the Cold War’s been over for more than 20 years.

Romney was right?

Since he took 2 or 3 stands on every issue, I assume we can safely say he is always right, depending on when we look

Romney was right about what? That the MSM would cover and save for BO and the RNC would do anything to help them allow him to do everything possible to ruin our country?

That the GOP would do anything to ruin conservatives and cower at the very sight of Obama and the democrats?

Romney was hardly the first Republican to see that coming …
. . . and yet they just had to title the story “Romney was right” though he doesn’t really deserve credit.

A conservative, a moderate, and a liberal walk into a bar.

The bartender says, “Hello Governor Romney.”

Romney is the only one that could fight John F’n Kerry for both sides of a fence.
