Romney is hated in Massachusetts because of RomneyCARE.

During his presidential run, Mitt Romney has tried to distance himself from the universal healthcare plan he passed as governor of Massachusetts because of its similarities to President Obama’s Affordable Care Act, but Romney’s law has been highly successful and, a new poll shows, very popular. The poll from WBUR, an NPR-affiliate in Boston, finds that 62 percent of Massachusetts residents support Romney’s law, while just 33 percent oppose it. Meanwhile, nearly 70 percent of respondents said they see Romney’s opposition to the Affordable Care Act as a political ploy — just a quarter think it’s based on substantive differences.

Always concise, your take is factual.

To that take could be added the initial pressure in MA on all Catholic institutions from the Romneycare cram down concerning abortion services and impacting conscience clauses—demands which went national under Obama and in the Supreme Court today.

Another thing, take a look at the excuses Romney hid behind in order to blow smoke out of both sides of his mouth to the people in MA who objected to the impact of his Romneycare on the Church run institutions there.

Under pressure, and probably wanting to play deaf, dumb and helpless, while buying time, he depended on MA state law to express his duty bound obligations to sign off on Romneycare, whatever the impact on religious liberty, with his sympathy for the concerns of the Church, don’t you know.

Notable was the absence of any effort on his part to use the Constitutional arguments to be made for religious liberty and presumably advantaged the Church position.

I’m afraid Romney and Obama have seeded a religious battle and I intend to participate, primarily and exactly, on those grounds by objecting to both.

REBELLION IS HARD, and it’s scary, and it’s costly, but this is the year that a rebellion counts.

At least Romney is paying for his elevators with HIS money, not OURS. I wonder how much the obummers have stashed away from the slush fund for their private use if barry loses in November? (I say if because anything can happen at this point) and after reading the posts on this board - it sounds like many FReepers are going to sit home and let the marxist win again. What a pity.
