I don't think you want to get into a history of Romney's cozy courtship of NARAL.
''He's very careful to say that he's not going to change the status quo . . . but in his questionnaire he filled out for us, he really went beyond the status quo," said Melissa Kogut, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts. ''He made commitments on a range of issues."
Obviously Mitt isn't as much of an extremist as NARAL usually likes, and they're mad at him for waffling on his pro-abortion dedication since he decided he's not running for reelection and has a new audience to pander to, but they probably have some good blackmail tapes of Mitt kissing some serious NARAL butt.
Romney's running mate, Kerry Healey, buttressed that idea by saying, ''There isn't a dime of difference between Mitt Romney's position on choice and Shannon O'Brien," who was an outspoken advocate for abortion rights.
Republicans in blue states have to say a lot of things to get elected they would not say if running in a red state. I don't have to tell you that cities like San Francisco, Chicago, NYC and so forth are infested with hippies, racists, feminists, socialists, and other vermin that make it difficult for right-minded people to win.
If someone like Romney is willing to give us the judges we want, then the hype about him not being pure on social issues is irrelevant.
The circular firing-squad crap is something the DUmmies do. If you don't like Romney and think Tancredo or whoever who support is the best thing ever, then spend more time doing good instead of being a cancer.
JohnnyZ,
I just went to your FR homepage and your whole purpose on this site seems to be to trash Romney. I can understand you not liking him or his positions . . . but to be so devoted to destroy someone? Please explain . . .
I'd like to hear what has evoked such passion. I've explained why I like Romney, disclosed my profession and past, and answered your questions (still waiting to hear back from you on a couple). Now it's your turn. Come forward and explain why someone who apparently has never met or been governed by Romney (you live in N.C.?) has such a strong passion against him. What is your profession? ("Anti-Romney crusader" doens't count). I think it's better to support a candidate than to pick one to trash. Who do you want as your next POTUS?
Boston Globe is truly a definitive source. Who would Boston Globe back as a presidential nominee? Did they back Mitt Romney for Gov.?
