Former Governor Mitt Romney has kept a high profile throughout the midterm election season endorsing and fundraising for GOP candidates, an effort that some analysts say has established his position as frontrunner for Republican nomination in 2012. Romney hasn’t escaped President Obama’s attention – and in a CBS “60 Minutes” interview last night, Obama compared his health care plan to Romney’s and practically announced Romney’s candidacy.

Obama weighed the political costs of health care reform and said Republicans didn’t cooperate as much as he had hoped they would.

“We thought that if we shaped a bill that wasn’t that different from bills that had previously been introduced by Republicans, including a Republican Governor in Massachusetts who’s now running for President, that we would be able to find some common ground there,” said Obama. “And we just couldn’t.”(continued)

Well, that should do it for Myth.

I think Mitt realized his Presidential hopes for 2012 are about the same as Obama’s after last Tuesday. Romneycare or Obamacare, most people don’t want it.

[timetostand]

Keep it up Zero we don’t like Mitt either!!

[Tublecane]

I can see his point.

Really, though, is this news? We all knew the Massachusetts mess was an inspiration. If not for the motive behind healthcare socialization—which has been around since pretty much forever—at least for the specific form it took in Obamacare.

I’ve been saying for a long time Romney’s only chance is to publicly admit his plan was a mistake and promise he wouldn’t do anything like it.

[laweeks]

I can’t believe he’s dragging Romney into that mess, although Romney has nothing to be proud of, his plan is certainly to where near the pile of crap that Pelosi and Nobama shoved down our throats.

“Mittencare”

This will be thrown up in Mitt’s face if he gets the nomination. We need another choice.

Mitt Romney should be DOA for the R nomination among anyone who thinks about this issue for a few seconds.

Way to lead the charge against something and have as the standard bearer of the mood of the nation to undo this monstrosity - another brother of monstrosities.

How much is Mitt going to spend before he realizes that we ain't buying?

How much is Mitt going to spend before he realizes that NO MATTER WHAT TOKYO ROVE TELLS HIM we ain't buying?

[CASchack]

See ya, Mitt....

[Hattie]

Actually Obama, the tea party doesn’t care a whit about Romney’s healthcare or yours. But the difference is the Romney care is in one state who has the right to decide what they want. Obamacare is not of that model. Instead it follows the dictatorial, unconstitutional model.

President Obama compares his health care bill to Romney's.

Exactly, that's why we must never, never, ever let Mitt be the R candidate in 2012!

[Lazlo in PA]

The item on the desk in his portrait is his proudest achievement: Romneycare. This man will not get out of the starting gate. Damaged goods.

[Carry_Okie]

Witness again the damage RINOs do.
