Mitt is STILL liberal on social issues, still splitting hairs, from supporting embryonic stem cell research and gay rights -- he supports both, and admits it -- to his horrendous 40-year history on social issues prior to his supposed "conversion" just in time to run for prez. He supports and opposes amnesty and won't say what he means when he says "amnesty"; and then there's the socialized health care plan.

I'll be charitable and just say that your analysis is inaccurate.

For example, the "socialized" health care plan that you speak of actually deregulated, privatized, and restructured much of the already existing state-run health care. It provided for MORE consumer choice, competition between insurers, and REDUCED the taxpayer burden in paying for the system. It was supported and heralded by a premiere conservative organization, the Heritage Foundation. The plan actually made Massachusetts' state-provided health care LESS socialist, not more. And Romney was able to accomplish this with an 85% Democrat legislature.

And your alteration of my FR handle, calling me "Spiffy", was juvenile. As is your analysis of my reasons for supporting Romney. Grow up.

No rebuttal to Romney's current social liberal stances, supporting embryonic stem cell research and gay rights?

That's right, better to just ignore it and keep worshipping your matinee idol.
