So...are you saying that a 47 year old Romney had a "skull full of Mush." But now that he is so old (50's, 60's) he's realized the error of his ways?
What do you think brought on this great epiphany? Same wife, same religious affiliation, same hair style and suave good looks, and silver tongue. What do you think brought him to his senses.
Could it possibly be that he needs the vote of conservatives to win the party nomination? Once he has secured our nomination and needs the vote of the general public to become President, do you think his views might go through another miraculous transformation?
"[D]o you think his views might go through another miraculous transformation?" Guaranteed.
