Romney: Health Care Bill Will Cost Obama 2nd Term By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS March 23, 2010

SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Former Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney says President Barack Obama's new health care bill is unconstitutional, deserves to be repealed and will help cost the Democrat a second term.

The former Massachusetts governor made the remarks Monday after signing nearly 1,000 copies of his new book, ''No Apology: The Case for American Greatness,'' at a bookstore near his La Jolla, Calif., vacation home.

Romney says the bill passed by the House late Sunday is unconstitutional because it interferes with interstate commerce. He says it needs to be repealed in part because it was passed without bipartisan support.

Great points Joe. We have to get lots and lots of our people to the polls. You are right. I see so much negative people I think they are plants sometimes.

[Oldexpat]

So Obama looses his second term and we loose our freedom. Not a fair deal.

[ansel12]

Is there any chance you can occasionally drop the McCain bit? At least on Romney threads?

[StopObama2012]

Is ROMNEY the best we’ve got??

An also-ran from 2008??

The leftists seem very pleased with Romney — proof the GOP needs to get rid of him ASAP.

[Deagle]

Heck with Obama - he is just a minor player at this point. The House and Senate are now the objectives. Take no prisoners.

[InterceptPoint]

And with any luck, it will cost Romney his first. RomneyCare, ObamaCare, Socialized Medicine. All the same.

Thank you for posting this

Yeah, thanks Fish, we need all the reminders we can get about Mitt-Witt's two, three, four FIVE-faced phony 'conservatism', he is a RINO just like Juan McStain, and he is as trustworthy a candidate as Roman Polanski is as a babysitter.

NO MORE RINOS!

Former Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney says...

If you actually care about this country you will shut up and go away...

When it concerns amnesty, Scott Brown is not the 41st vote. There are a number of republican senators for amnesty. Graham and McCain are the first to come to mind.

Hopefully they will realize what the deemocrats are trying to do and will say not one republican vote for anything they try to pass, but I don’t really hold out any hope that the gang of 14 or the reach across the aisle senators will abandon any of their treacherous habits.

Romney is a plant to get Obama elected to a second term. Say no to Romney!

FTA: Romney: Health Care Bill Will Cost Obama 2nd Term

If there is any justice in this world, it'll cost Romney his first term.

He is anti-amnesty.

“Graham and McCain are the first to come to mind.”

With JD having already made up 15 points on McCain in just 2 months and closing in fast, I wouldn't count on McCain voting for amnesty this year if I were you.

[Clyde5445]

That is one of the frist thing I thought of this morning. Mitten Toast.

[Waryone]

Have no fear. I know all about Mittens.

I say go Mitt go! Go Mitt go! Go Mitt go! Go very far away!!!!!

I would not vote for that side, back, and front stabbing socialist if he were the only candidate running. I’m tired of his lying, baby murder loving, gay loving, anti-gun, statist ways.

But I’m not going to sit here and pretend McCain and Pansy Graham, as well as the other Senate RINOs have fallen off the face of the earth. We’ve got work to do, especially in McCain’s case. He needs to be retired in 2010. Then in 2012, we’ll get rid of 0bama and without Mittens.

[Waryone]

Scott Brown may be a vote against amnesty but there are not 40 other anti-amnesty republican votes in the Senate.

I counted on South Carolina to tell Pansy to shut up in 2008, but he’s still there. Hopefully we will have a different result in AZ. This Zero care passing will do a lot to help JD. But as I said, there are many amnesty RINOs in the Senate. I am hoping they have learned the dems are not their friends and are certainly not to be trusted. But again, we will have to see.

I pray that JDs success agains McCain continues.

[crazydad]

Not with 20 million new Dems to vote for him... He is going to be ruler for life.. I can’t believe i lived to see the end of America.. My step dad would be appalled at America today if he were alive...

[Sarajevo]

Romney’s one to talk, eh?

[DontTreadOnMe2009]

How can he run for a second term without a BC ??????????????????

[Diogenesis]

DID ROMNEY APOLOGIZE TO GOV. PALIN YET?

"Let's lose twice for the GOP, attack Gov. Palin,
impose vitamin control, socialized medicine,
gay marriage without a vote,
and gouts of illegal immigration .. .and make money from it.
Oh yeah, AIG and ACORN will pay our way again."

"Romney presidential campaign staffers…have been involved in spreading anti-Palin spin to reporters."

"Frum ... (Romney supporter called Gov. Palin’s) nomination a "huge mistake" October 13 (2008)"

---

" 80 percent of Romney's former staff was absorbed by McCain
and these individuals were responsible for what amounts
to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."

---

"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off
….hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

---

"Peeking Out From the McCain Wreckage: Mitt Romney"

"Someone's got to say it: IS MITT ROMNEY RESPONSIBLE FOR OBAMA'S VICTORY?"

"Vanity: Team Romney Sabotaged Palin and Continuing to Do So?"

"Romney Supporters Trashing Palin"

"Romney advisors sniping at Palin?"

[kevkrom]

I hate to rail against people when they're right, or to turn away allies in the fight, but Romney needs to shut his pie-hole and work behind the scenes if he's serious about helping. He has NO CREDIBILITY on this issue because of RomneyCare; even if he's trying to help, it's not helping, because all it does is shout "hypocrite".
