"I’m in a different place than I was probably in 1994, when I ran against Ted Kennedy, in my own views on that.”

As someone who's gone from being pro-choice to pro-life, I understand that views can change. But this certainly smacks of political opportunism, as Romney moves from appealing to Massachusetts voters to appealing to Republican primary voters.

Perhaps the socialist contagion endemic of the NE has penetrated the abstraction layer of his handlers and he has been given a new script.

That concerns Angus McQuilken, public affairs director for the Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts, who said: "It’s just not credible to have one set of values when it comes to Massachusetts and another set when you decide you’re going to present yourself to the voters nationally.”

Finally, an issue on which I can agree with Planned Parenthood.

I hope nobody buys this chump.

He's just trying to change his Rino spots in time for the election that he has absolutely no business entering.

Romney is still a Massachusetts Yankee and a Mormon: two strikes against him among conservative evangelical GOP primary voters in the South and the lower Midwest. His father had little or no appeal to conservative voters in his unsuccessful run for the Republican nomination in 1968. Any Northeastern politician (with the possible exception of Rick Santorum, who may be in trouble in his re-election bid in Pennsylvania next year) who believes he has a shot at the Republican Presidential nomination is kidding himself.

Someone please tell Romney this may play in Mass., but it will not fly in the red states.

Here in Colorado we have two Democrats who claim they have been Christian all their life-and resent it when people who disagree with their position claim they are not Christian.
Same rule applies Jesus said Those who love ME obey My
commandments.(John 14:15)And that lesson is reflected in the letters written by the Apostles. And that those who heard Him are the Salt of the earth(Matthew 5:13)That"Everyone will be salted with fire,and salt is good.but
if it loses its saltiness how can you make it salty again?"
(Mark 9:50) I see no reason to respect any who claim they
personally believe such or such -but they are unwilling to
defend what they claim to believe.

"I’m personally pro-life.” [...] the Republican governor’s spokeswoman, wouldn’t explain how Romney’s stance has changed

This is different from Hitlery how?
