Only if by that you mean for “Heritage Foundation” and “Republican’s idea” to translate as socialist medicine, death panels, and an unconstitutional mandate to purchase a product.
Brilliant strategerizing!!!! not.
GO ROMNEY!
I guess I have been mistaken for along time. I didn't realize that here in California our gun laws are worse than Massachusetts. Back in 1977 I remember driving into Massachusetts and seeing a sign that said "No Guns Allowed" or some such thing at the state line. I have yet to see one like it here in California. I didn't know that I could have carried a loaded, holstered, revolver on my belt in Massachusetts while out in the boonies like I can here in California.
Mitt Romney:”These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense,” “They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people.”
Mitt Romney: “I was an independent during the time of Reagan-Bush. I’m not trying to return to Reagan-Bush.”
“Reagan was adamantly pro choice”
Mitt Romney: “I’m not a partisan politician. My hope is that, after this election, it will be the moderates of both parties who will control the Senate, not the Jesse Helmses.”
Mitt Romney:”One issue I want to clarify concerns President Clinton’s “don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue” military policy. I believe that the Clinton compromise was a step in the right direction. I am also convinced that it is the first of a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays and lesbians being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military. That goal will only be reached when preventing discrimination against gays and lesbians is a mainstream concern, which is a goal we share.”
There is no choice between Romney and Obama; they are cut from the same cloth.
FREEDOM!
I oppose Mitt’s candidacy - again; but it has to be pointed out to Obama that there is a huge constitutional difference between the powers of the federal government and the states.
Does Obama really consider Romney a threat? I mean has he ‘misread’ the tea leaves that badly?
Massachusetts also has very restrictive gun laws. Other states don’t have to imitate that, either.
States have a Fourteenth Amendment-imposed constitutional duty to protect the unalienable rights of the people. The Right to Keep and Bear Arms is a God-given unalienable right. No state has a "right" to infringe on the people's right to defend themselves, their families, their communities, their country, and their Constitution.

And Myth is bashing Obamacare. While defending the similar legislation he approved in MA.
Too lame for words. Such rank hypocrisy is best suited for democrats.
“this program was instituted in one state, and was therefore allowed by the US Constitution”
Wrong. First, it just means nobody has successfully challenged it on Constitutional grounds. Yet. Second, it might mean states can pass MittCare or ObamaCare, but does not address if the US govt is Constitutionally empowered to do so.
I could go on (and on), but I think that makes the point...
