That is exactly how it happened. one day he is a life long liberal and politician, and then he switched on everything for a new campaign.

The scientist denies Mitt’s conversion story.

“Romney’s Conversion. Was it Authentic?

Romney says he became “pro-choice” two years before Roe vs. Wade became law as a result of a death of relative due to an illegal abortion. But then, in November of 2004, at age 57 years old, he claimed to have had a second conversion about the issue while meeting with a stem cell researcher from the Harvard Stem Cell Institute. Romney claimed the researcher told him,

Look, you don’t have to think about this stem cell research as a moral issue, because we kill the embryos after 14 days.

However, the media located the scientist, Dr. Douglas Melton, and he
stated he never said such a thing:

“”Governor Romney has mischaracterized my position; we didn’t discuss killing or anything related to it….I explained my work to him, told him about my deeply held respect for life, and explained that my work focuses on improving the lives of those suffering from debilitating diseases.””

It’s a troubling conversion story. If Romney was disturbed by the destruction of a 14 day old embryo created in a test tube, then how did he not realized after all his years in politics that millions of unborn babies - some as old as six months — were being destroyed? How can he walk away appalled that stem cell research kills life but then turn around and
continue to support the killing of embryos for stem cell research? (see below)

And then there’s the question of his wife Ann. A long time member of the moderate Republican Party establishment in Massachusetts, one of her jobs while her husband was governor appears to be to reassure liberal voters that her husband can be trusted to support abortion rights. Indeed, a 2002 video has now surfaced on YouTube with Mrs. Romney doing just that:

Ann romney-”I think they [referring to pro-abortion women] may be more nervous about him on social issues. They shouldn’t be, because he’s gonna be just fine.”

Romney himself chimes in, “So when asked, will I preserve and protect a women’s right to choose, I make an unequivocal answer: Yes.” You can watch this at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKwVNUz52vo

Incredibly, Ann is now being assigned by the Romney campaign to speak to pro-life groups about her husband’s pro-life credentials. Are we being asked to believe that she also had an epiphany on this issue at the same time her husband did?”


Parade interviewer: “In the past you’ve said he’s changed positions only once, on abortion. Was that your doing?”

Ann Romney’s response: “No, no, I never talked to Mitt about that. Our personal opinions have never changed; we’ve always been pro-life.”

Why, Fabian, how dare you call Ann Romney a liar. Ann Romney says the Romneys have “always been pro-life” and that “Our personal opinions [on abortion] have NEVER changed...”
