Don’t expect Mitt Romney to backtrack on his Massachusetts health-care plan at any point this election cycle.
“I am sure there are many people who have calculated, and perhaps correctly, that the healthcare plan I put in place in Massachusetts is not good for me politically, and if I want to encourage my political future, I should say it was a mistake and walk away from it,” Romney told Fox Business Network host Neil Cavuto in an interview set to air later tonight.
“You have seen a lot of candidates look at their biggest vulnerability, call it a mistake, and ask for forgiveness,” Romney continued. “In my case that wouldn’t be honest.”
He affirmed that he believes the health-care program was the “right thing” for Massachusetts then, although he conceded that it hasn’t “worked perfectly.”
“If it hurts me politically, it’s a consequence of the truth,” Romney added. “I am not going to walk away from that. It’s right for states to come up with their own solutions. I doubt other people are going try and follow the one we put together. Maybe learn from our experience. Maybe come up with something better. But the wrong course is to have the federal government impose its will on the entire nation.”

Strangely enough, there's a story at the top of The Blaze about her now.
‘GOING GALT’: HEDGE BROKER SHUTS DOWN FIRM WITH CHILLING LETTER ABOUT THE MARKET
This lady is the real deal. Next to her, Coulter looks like Miley Cyrus.
Coulter is Miley Cyrus now as far as I’m concerned after her promotion and blatant arse kissing endorsement of Mittobama RINOmney.
I actually respect Slick Willard a tiny bit now. At least he’s standing up for his true liberal principles and not trying to flip flop like he has on every other issue.
Plus, now he has no chance of winning. :)
I wonder what her FR handle is.
You are the worse of TWO worlds—a dang Yankee AND a damn RINO!
There are fundamental differences between Romneycare and Obamacare. Romneycare included some deregulation, did not come with a tax hike, did not raid other department/program budgets, and encouraged health savings accounts. Obamacare increases regulation, comes with a huge tax hike, raids huge chunks of money from Medicare, and discourages health savings accounts.

Beyond this, Romney has emphatically promised (1) to issue waivers to all states to allow them to opt out of Obamacare, and (2) to push for the outright repeal of Obamacare via Congressional legislation. I believe Romney would keep these promises. So do Newt Gingrich and Ann Coulter.
Clean-up on aisle five!
Romneybot trolls (see post 88) always get the ZOT!

Wow, you signed up to get smacked down today?
BTW, your post is inaccurate and dishonest.
Bye!
I believe BTF is a retread several times over.
Spread this video far and wide...
After seeing him on Hannity last night, I am now positive that he will not get my vote in the Primary or Presidential election. I was thinking that maybe I would cast an anti-obama vote, however I will not pull the lever for Mitt. When you hit 3 specific reasons, then I can not hold my nose....
1. Still supports TARP. Said, “without it ALL banks would have collapsed and the entire economy would have collapsed!” Dummy speak extradonaire....
2. Still stands by the individual mandate for healthcare. Hey Mitt, what other products do you believe the state should force me to buy. As a Michigander I have to ask you Mitt, do you support legislatively forcing Ford employees to buy GM vehicles to save the government’s investment?
3. In the same breath he still claims to be a conservative. This shows that he has no clue about our Constitution. He mouths the words, but clearly is not interested in “serving,” instead he desires to hold the office.
FUMR!!!
