"Romney is known as a "John Kerry Flip Flopper" because of his politically expedient vacillating positions on many issues ranging from abortion, gay marriage, illegal immigration, and gun control. We can now add healthcare to the list."

Yep, esp. the leftist reporters, which is actually a self-cancelling phrase...
