MANCHESTER, N.H. — Mitt Romney offered a tepid defense of the Massachusetts health care law, suggesting to an audience last night at the Granite State’s first forum of the 2012 presidential campaign that he would sign it again if given the chance.

“I went to work to try and solve a problem,’’ Romney said. “It may not be perfect — by the way, it is not perfect.’’

The statement was in response to a question asked of the former Massachusetts governor after he delivered a short address that was equal parts patriotic fervor and attacks on President Obama’s economic policies. For many Republican voters, however, how Romney handles the health care question could determine the success of his expected candidacy.

This confirms to it me - Milt has severe developmental and emotional problems.

I look forward to watching him literally piss away millions of his dollars for nothing.

Wow...

“I went to work to try and solve a problem,’’ Romney said.

You failed to solve the problem, Mitt wit.

Why would anyone consider voting for this clown in a Republican primary?

Mitt: “Socialism is good for Mass. and good for the GOP”.

Probably not but depending on who does or doesn’t run he could well get the nomination—thanks to open primaries where independents can take a Republican ballot. See: McCain, John.

If you liked Romneycare, you’ll love Trumpcare.

Thanks GOPsterinMA.
"I went to work to try and solve a problem," Romney said. "It may not be perfect -- by the way, it is not perfect."
The problem he was trying to solve was, "why is government not big enough?"

Mitt “The RINO” doesn’t learn from his mistakes.

For all the other pros and cons about Romney, the fact that his candidacy takes ObamaCare off the table as a campaign issue makes him unsupportable to me. Stopping ObamaCare needs to be among the top four issues the GOP nominee has to bring with him in 2012 and Mitt can’t do that with any credibility.

Guess what Mitt, you don't need to sign it again, because we already had it forced down our throats.

We are so screwed if he's the nominee. Even if he does defeat the Magic muslim, there's NO CHANCE he'll repeal 0bamacare, he just promised that.

“I went to work to try and solve a problem,’’

...and came up with a massive new gov't program. Great. Tells me all I need to know.
