Tell the whole story:
Many of the law’s core elements, including the requirement that all people in the state get insurance, were in Romney’s original proposal in 2005. The Democratic legislature added many of its own ideas to the final law, including a $295 fee per employee for businesses who do not offer health insurance to their workers. Romney vetoed that provision but was overridden by the legislature.
Mitt stuck the socialist camel’s nose firmly under the tent flap. Anyone with a brain knew that the Dems would immediately invite the whole animal in to stay. Pretty high “duh” factor on that one.
