We need someone who breathes fire on Healthcare repeal for 2012, Romneys past in regards to healthcare in Mass. will make him unable to attack on that issue to the extent that is needed, he will be hamstrung by his past record on Romneycare.
If Romney wants to have any chance at 2012 he will have to not only distance himself from Romneycare but come out “breathing fire” to repeal Obamacare.
So that's exactly what he will do. He will also position himself against homosexual rights to appease the social conservatives. Those supporting another candidate will scream FLIP FLOPPER but it will not strike pay dirt...politicians have “epiphanies” all the time and will run on their current platforms.
These comments aren't in support of Romney, just political prognostication. Those banking on using these two issues to derail Romney will need to plan an alternative course.
