Its simple Romney was a member of “The Club” and DeMint simply supported a fellow Club member.
Besides, trying something like RomneyCare in Massachusetts is the whole point of having 50 separate, sovereign states. Each state can try something different and other states can adopt what seems to work.

We need more states doing their own thing. If they fail it serves as a lesson for the rest.

good point about the states.
and DeMint doesn’t support it now, unlike Romney who still does.
people wanted DeMint to have known what a disaster it would be, like a psychic?
seems we should be aiming that the people destroying our country now, instead of one of the FEW members of congress who are doing the right thing, about the dept ceiling, etc.

Bingo. Romneycare didn’t work, but at least it was tried.

That’s the idea of states sovereignty. Let them each try something. If 50 states try 50 different health care programs, there is a good chance one will work well enough to be used on a national level, or else adopted by other states.

If each state is afraid to try a new plan, for fear of criticism if it doesn’t work, then the void will be filled with a national plan, which is what we have now.

“Its simple Romney was a member of “The Club” and DeMint simply supported a fellow Club member.”
McCain was also a member of the club and DeMint supported new conservative candidates against establishment members of “the club” last election.
Your second sentence is spot on.
