"Like President Bush, Governor Romney Would Have Signed The Assault Weapons Ban Extension At That Time (2004) But Will Not Seek To Reinstate The Ban. As Governor Romney stated on CNN and "Meet the Press," had he been President and had the Assault Weapons Ban extension reached his desk, like President Bush, he would have signed it. That bill did not pass Congress. Governor Romney has stated that he would not reinstate that Assault Weapons Ban. In fact, Governor Romney does not support any new gun laws including a ban on semi-automatic firearms. He would consider limitations on weapons of unusual lethality like grenades, rocket launchers, fully automatic firearms and what are legally known as destructive weapons. (NBC's "Meet The Press," 12/16/2007; CNN's "The Situation Room," 11/26/2007; The Des Moines Register, 10/23/2007)"

Apparently you missed the link I posted and Mitt's own words. He did vote for an "assault weapons" ban.

So with Mitt is this?

The one that was for the AWB ban or the one against it?

Which will we get when 2012 run around?

Is it the Mitt that was for abortion and then against abortion and then for abortion?

How about the one that was for gay rights or maybe the one that was against gay rights?

How about the one that was soft on illegal aliens and then against illegal aliens and then came out just the other day and once again changed his position.

Mitt is the Chamelion of US Presidential politics.
