That’s probably exactly what will happen. Although Romney’s not very conservative, so maybe this means that he’d edge out Crist. Not that there’s a heck of a lot of difference there, from what I understand from people who had to live under Romney when he was a governor.
Romney’s health care plan in MA has fallen and it can’t get up.
Mitt is/was not perfect. However, the man performed well considering the Dems outnumber the Reps in the State legislature by a 9-to-1 margin.
Plus, any “old time” (a.k.a. partially sane) Dems that did work with him were wiped out in the 2004 election. Yes, he screwed up on a few things, such as the mandatory health insurance, but again - what did he have to work with? Not much.
And for the usual flammers out there, please - posting the 1994 campaign literature and that the number of Reps shrunk while he was governor - he doesn’t hate gays and the 2004 Rep wipeout in MA was a foreshadowing of the BDS that would hit everywhere else in 2006 and 2008.
