What does Mitt Romney stand for? Find out: Which Mitt site

In 1994, while running to be Massachusetts' next U.S. senator, Mitt Romney said: "I believe that since Roe v. Wade has been the law for 20 years that we should sustain and support it. And I sustain and support that law and the right of a woman to make that choice." October 25, 1994

But, as a Republican Party primary candidate in the 2008 presidential election, he said: "And that is why, as a pro-life Republican, I am in favor of having the Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade." September 5, 2007"

I’ve been saying this was going to happen. Romney seems unable to answer a simple “yes” or “no” question, and they know it. They’re going to bludgeon him with it. Guilty or not, Romney will look like he’s hiding something.

What drives Mitt Romney? Why does he do the things he does?

It is my contention that Romney is writing his own life story, and he has decided that his story will include being a Governor, a successful businessman, and President of the United States. So he does whatever he needs to do to make those things happen.

This willingness to do whatever it takes enabled him to be ruthless in the business world, which led to great success. This willingness to do whatever it takes made it possible for him to adopt the Democrat agenda in Massachusetts and saddle that unfortunate state with Romneycare. And his willingness to do whatever it takes now makes it easy for him to ditch all of his previous positions, take white-out to his writings, and parrot the Republican line of today.

But if he were to be elected President, what would be Mitt’s motivation then? If we can divine that, it would give us a much better indication of what he would do as President than listening to any of his speeches now.

I submit to you that about the time Mitt takes his hand off the Bible on Inaugeration Day, he will start thinking about his Legacy as a Great President. And he will quickly figure out that the best way to secure that Legacy as a Great President will be to reach out to the Democrats and give the Washington Establishment exactly what it wants.

Imagine Mitt at a debate laying out all the flip flops Obama has if Obama has the nerve to bring this up. Guantanamo, Open meetings to the public on health care, 5 days to read the bills, no past lobbiest in my administration and the list goes on.

So I don’t understand this; if like Rush said, they want Romney so they know they can beat him, why are they attacking him now? If Cain keeps going and the delegates vote for Cain then Romney is out of the picture. Are the delegates going to vote against the will of the people en masse? I doubt that. Are the delegates necessarily rinos? I don’t think so. Someone show me what I’m missing.

I'm glad to see you post articles like this because Romney is the enemy every bit as much as Obama. Too bad it's "preachin' to the choir" and reaching very few "moderate" republicans.

Obamacare is anathema and its real author is Mitt Romney, who now says he wants to repeal it.

My goodness...the more I think about the WH attacking Romney now, the more I wonder could this be part of Perry's strategy? We know Romney is the only other one running who has the money and organization established proving he is the serious candidate. Cain is like 2008 Fred 'no money or organization' Thompson. OF course, Fred was miles above Cain with a record to stand on and actually winning elections. I do not consider Fred the flim flam man.
