Doctor on Fox News yesterday said that Romney Care has doubled the waiting time for a patient to see their doctor from 20+ days to 40+ days and they are experiencing the same sort of delays in treatment that you see in the Canadian and other socialized health care systems.

So much for Romney's greatest claim to fame as Mass-Gov.

Romney is just another Socialist masquerading as a conservative.

Unfriggin’ believable.
Mitt’s a nice enough guy, but really just look at MA.

" The experience in Massachusetts should teach conservatives that individual and employer [insurance] mandates are socialized medicine with a private facade. "

Hussein Obama is now talking about ""health insurance reform". National Health Care Reform is out, inoperative.

The same bill will now be pushed as "insurance reform."

See tag.

Mr. Mitt “I love mandates!” Romney can pound salt.

Anyone notice that the Romneybots are getting scarce and the few that are showing up are second stringers...

"A political party cannot be all things to all people.
It must represent certain fundamental beliefs
 which must not be compromised to political expediency
or simply to swell its numbers."

--  President Ronald Reagan


"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party
 over to the traitors in the battle just ended.
We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged
 to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support.
Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates
wouldn’t make any sense at all.""

--  President Ronald Reagan

Romney is finished, Kaput, as far as a serious political contender in 2012.

The mess he helped crate in Masschusetts health care is a anchor around his neck from which he will neer escape.
