Romney: I'll Take Credit for Obamacare
NRO ^ | Apr. 14, 2010 | Rich Lowry

Posted on 04/14/2010 9:01:50 AM PDT by Al B.

How Romney handles the health-care issue going forward will be a ticklish challenge. I'm pretty sure, though, that this is not the way to do it. From the Sunday New York Times:

[...]

He added, “If ever again somewhere down the road I would be debating him, I would be happy to take credit for his accomplishment.”

Well, he's an obamaclone and he's starting out the same way obama did...full of ARROGANCE.

As I think back, I don't remember at what point in the last two years that healthcare became a National crisis.

Probably because it was obama-created to have another entitlement to trade for votes.

Romney did the same thing...vote for Romney and you get White Obama. Look how his boy sidekick - Scott Brown - fooled us all...and Romney is his mentor.

It seems like Romney is a decent family man but he is a clueless idiot and a liberal. Just go away Mitt. Even decent Repubs like Santorum and Pataki are light years better than Romney.

Exactly. He’s another “maverick” which is usually another name for Democrat.

If enough Democrats cross over during primaries, we could get Romney. He would be their favorite choice. Maybe that’s his play. Worked for Comrade Juan McNuts.

There will be no nose-holding if Romney gets the nomination from the GOP. I will be actively working for whoever the strongest third party candidate is.

Enough is enough.

So why has Romney vehemently denied the programs are effectively the same? Why has he said he work to change 0bamacare?

Romney is a freaking idiot. Thanks NYT for showing this to the world.

Anything that stops this stupid man is helpful.

The media will declare Romney as front runner for the GOP nomination in 2012. Mitt is the ideal candidate the MSM wants/desires to run against Obama.

MUST NOT LET THIS HAPPEN!!!!!

Ted Danson's counting on Romney being the nominee. He needs the work.

All done Romney. Pack it up and go home.

If I wasn’t certain about NOT being in favor of Mitt before, this seals it. DONE.

Hey speak for yourself. Scott Brown didn’t fool all of us. I was glad he won, but I know full well that nothing good comes out of Massachusetts. Willard Mittens being absolute proof of that.

No, you misunderstand. I’m agreeing with you. Romney supporters support obamacare by-proxy.

Taken in context, I think Romney was just being faceteous.

I still think he’s an asshat.

Ok, then I'll stop gnawing on my foot.
You will see on other threads, and maybe showing up on this one, there are many supporters on FR of Romney. I will say as far as I can tell they are all lds.
Thanks for clarifying. Sorry I misunderstood you.

Doesn't mean I don't want you banned, though.

But it's more whimsical than anything.
