“No he’as not. He’s far worse. He’s the author and impetus of ObamaCare for starters. If a Republican governor (Romney) could do it in Massachusetts, then WE (Obama and the socialist democrats) can implement OUR health care package for all of America!”

Romney’s own words:
“There’s something to be said for having a Republican who supports civil rights in this broader context, including sexual orientation. When Ted Kennedy speaks on gay rights, he’s seen as an extremist. When Mitt Romney speaks on gay rights he’s seen as a centrist and a moderate. It’s a little like if Eugene McCarthy was arguing in favor of recognizing China, people would have called him a nut. But when Richard Nixon does it, it becomes reasonable. When Ted says it, it’s extreme; when I say it, it’s mainstream.”

Same reasoning applies to health care, global warming, etc. When the Republican is the one in favor of leftist policy, it will be mainstream.
