[ WHY DOES MARK STEYN SUPPORT OBAMA?!?” ]
Well.... you got two choices..
1) the inventor of Romney-care...
or
2) the inventor of Obama-care..
** plus both are Union Stooges... drones in the collective..
The real choice is a totally controlled Congress by republicans..
They can force him to pass bills he don’t really want to pass..
And when he selects liberals for the Supreme Court they can fail to pass them..
Especially of the republicans can get 60 Senate members..
Extremely unlikely outcome, unless it includes the White House.
Remember, most of the voters are sheeple. The notion of divided government eludes your average sheepperson. Your average sheepperson doesn't have a clue. Your average sheepperson votes Democrat or Republican, not split-ticket.
And, most important, it's the top of the ticket that generates the enthusiasm. If the top of the ticket wins big, the rest of the picture will fall into place. If not, then not. That's how the cookie crumbles in the US of A.
That means you have to generate maximum enthusiasm for the top of the ticket. Unless you are a traitor.
I figure you meant if. It's not impossible, but it won't be easy. It means keeping all the seats we now have, including open seats in Arizona, Texas and Maine, which could be problematic in Maine's case, plus picking up 13 new seats from the rats. While the Tea Party did very well in Maine in 2010, the former governor Angus King, who is still very popular according to the MSM, is running as an independent.
Not unless they can get 2/3 in each house.
Which seems pretty unlikely.
The difference is that Romneycare was constitutional under the 10th amendment and should actually be called MAssholecare as it’s what his constituents in Mass demanded.
The states can be laboratory’s of legislation and may show us success or failure.
Romneycare is a mislabeling of Massachusetts healthcare program. He did not design it, he just saw over what Teddy Kennedy,John Kerry, Barney Frank and Massholes demanded in their state.
The Federal Government had no right to give us Obamacare at the federal level and the larger portion of Americans were against it
I think it is unfair to equate Romney to Obama on this matter.
Romney only responded to his constituents.
Obama gave his the finger.
