Mitt will flip flop. It's what he does best.

Baker and Tisei support RomneyCare. Tisei got lots of money from Health Insurance providers. The constitutionality was dismissed even by CLT&G’s Barbara Anderson.

[Luke21]

He's a jerk and a toad, just like his old man. George Romney was an original Rino lout, but he admitted he had been “brainwashed” into supporting the Vietnam War. That stupid comment ended his supposed juggernaut campaign for president.

Maybe Mittens can tell us he was “brainwashed” into passing Romneycare. He's a goober.

As the nation swings Right, demanding smaller government and tax reduction, why would any sane Republican vote for the instigator of RomneyCare in MA? That would truly be a death wish.

I’m no Romney fan, but I don’t see the conflict here.

STATES can pass whatever law they want. And on health care, it would be good if we had 50 different laboratories to see what works best. (For exampe, Vermont wants to pass a single payer system. Why not? It’s their State).

Passing a FEDERAL health care law, with a mandate no less, is an entirely different matter.

All Romney has to say is: Hey, we’re trying something different in Mass. It may work, it may not. But it doesn’t mean I support a national plan, with a mandate no less.

No conflict at all. No hypocrisy at all.

States rights all the way.

LOL...

Yeah Mitt, go on the road fully supporting Romneycare, which you still take credit for and support in speeches anyways.

Between that and your lifetime of hunting and NRA membership and rock solid (this cycle) prolife creds your are a “sure thing”...

LOL...

This is just silly. Apologizing won’t do anything other than give the Dems an issue and the MSM something to make hay over. I’m not voting for Flip-Flop Mitt whether he apologizes or not.

[Peter from Rutland]

The Boston Glob speaks for Republicans? Since when?! I’m a life long Republican and I ask Romney to go jump off a cliff.

[pennyfarmer]

In a blog post entitled, “Say Goodbye to Mitt Romney,” Republican strategist Bill Pascoe encouraged Romney to “say six simple words” about Massachusetts health care reform: “‘I was wrong. I am sorry.’”

Mitt will flip flop. It's what he does best.

I agree. He has been on both sides of the fence more than a set of dirty sheets. But he can play his "Mormon victim" card and claim they are picking on his religion.

[freekitty]

BS. The only people that support Rommneycare are people who are Marxists and/or have their finger in the pie.

[ontap]

Mitt’s in a quandary flip again or stick with Mittcare...no good direction to go!!

[Oldpuppymax]

So Romney “apologizes” for his Marxist Romney Care law. He’s STILL a leftist in republican clothing. Lying is what liberals do BEST, after all

[3niner]

Mitt doesn’t need to apologize, he just needs to stop running for President.

[pt17]

What Mitt does best is behave like the greasy political hack he is.

[TAdams8591]

"*UPDATE: I originally suggested in this post that Mitt Romney favored same-sex marriage when he ran for statewide office in Massachusetts.While Romney did signal his broad support for gay rights — including, at one point, his support for domestic partnerships for same-sex couples — he never specifically said he favored same-sex marriage."

Important distinction.

[jimt]

He’s a hypocrite.

You can’t be a “small government conservative” and support goobermint takeover of healthcare.

You cannot support abortion on demand and be a devout Mormon.

You cannot support “gay marriage” and be a devout Mormon.

I’ll never support Mitt for anything. Three strikes and you’re out.

An excellent article. Thank you for posting.

Very, very informative.
