When did Romney change his mind on abortion?
People say that a lot, I have not seen any evidence which supports that conclusion.
I posted a time line awhile back of his abortion actions, and yes in January of 2012 Romney said in effect, call me pro-life now.
Do not know about Akin’s wife.
The people who know him say he has been a huge supporter of life in congress, and has been able to block many things which furthers abortion.
The whole world - really outside people who closely follow politics no one cares what he said.

I'm not buying it. IMO, if Romney truly felt differently about abortion, he would have voiced at least some sort of regret, sorrow, repentance, etc. over the abortions he set into motion in MA. I've heard nothing of the sort from him.

According to his colleagues in MA, he decided to run for president, and BOOM! He went from abortion-supporter to pro-life overnight (among other instantaneous reversals of opinion).

What does Mitt Romney have to do with the fact that Todd Akin is an idiot who turned a 10-point advantage into a 10-point deficit in less than two weeks?

If you want to talk pro-life, then consider this. If we don't get ObamaTax overthrown in the upcoming year, then the HHS Secretary will soon be dictating that every insurance company in America cover abortion. And there won't be a damn thing we can do about it. I know that Claire McCaskill will vote against repeal. I also know that any generic Republican from Missouri will vote in favor of repeal. But the most important fact here is that Todd Akin won't get a vote because due to his stupidity, he won't ever be in the US Senate.
