huck had some bad ideas but romney actually signed romneycare into law. He actually said in a GOP debate in 2008... Remember this?
“Debate moderator Charles Gibson of ABC News: “But Gov. Romney’s system has mandates in Massachusetts, although you backed away from mandates on a national basis.”
No, no, I like mandates. The mandates work.
GOP contender Fred Thompson: “I beg your pardon? I didn’t know you were going to admit that. You like mandates.”
Romney: “Oh, absolutely. Let me tell you what kind of mandates I like, Fred, which is this. If it weren’t –“
Thompson: “The ones you come up with. Bingo””

That wasn’t poll-driven. He really believed in that stuff.
Hey man. I had a bucket of sh!t to choose from on the GOP side and a Marxist Radical on the Rat side. What was I supposed to do? Nothing? I am fully aware of Mittens. I hate him. A number of us made a choice. I chose to be stabbed instead of shot. So shoot me.

I don’t know if all people realize that if the government has control over our life and death (Romney/ObamaCARE), they own us.
I rmember that debate exchange between Romney and Thompson vividly. I was struck by it at the time, how Thompson sniffed, dismissively, at the idea of mandates. Thompson was right.
