Mitt Romney on Tuesday warned congressional Republicans against shutting down the government in an attempt to defund ObamaCare.
I badly want ObamaCare to go away, and stripping it of funds has appeal, Romney said at a fundraiser in New Hampshire for the states Republican Party, according to prepared remarks. But we need to exercise great care about any talk of shutting down government. What would come next when soldiers aren't paid, when seniors fear for their Medicare and Social Security, and when the FBI is off duty?
Speaking at the event in Wolfeboro, just miles from his summer vacation home, the 2012 Republican presidential candidate said there are better ways to remove President Obamas signature healthcare law.
I'm afraid that in the final analysis, ObamaCare would get its funding, our party would suffer in the next elections, and the people of the nation would not be happy, he said. I think there are better ways to remove ObamaCare.
A plan spearheaded by Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) would shut down the government to block funds for ObamaCare. Lee says hes recruited more than a dozen Republican colleagues willing to block a continuing resolution to fund the government beyond Sept. 30 if it includes funding for the healthcare law.
But in recent weeks, the plan has been under fierce attack by some in the Republican Party, who worry that the GOP would take the blame for a government shutdown, and that it might cost the party in upcoming elections.

Who is this fellow R-O-M-N-E-Y?
Spineless attention whore.
Romney who?
Says he was at a fundraiser. For which team?
Right. We could take it to the Supremes.
I’m sure we should listen to him. After all, he knows what it takes to win elections, right?
Romney? Is that a dish best served cold?
Romney is the Godfather of Obamacare.
Why doesn’t he warn the democrats?
Pound sand, loser....
Romney, where have I heard that name before?
And this is wht he was supported by the GrOPE elite in Washington.
And this is why he lost in 2016.

That right there shows how stupid he is, uninformed but, never in doubt...
Those are essential services and there is no way they get shut down and the checks don’t keep coming.
Punk.
“Romney warns”, no read to read any further. It won’t make any sense to do so.
“ObamaCare would get its funding, our party would suffer in the next elections, and the people of the nation would not be happy,”
Well, thanks for the buzzkill, loser.
Ok, yes Romney is an expert in how to win elections, right? So is Dole and Mcain.
Let’s listen to:
1) Our losers and
2) Our opponents
That is a sure path to electoral victory.
