Romney denouncing his greatest political accomplishment - Health Care Reform

Talk about selling your soul to the devil.

He could be a hero to millions of people. When President Obama and team were coming up with a new Health Care Reform idea, they looked to Massachusetts and what Governor Romney implemented there and modeled their system after his. As more and more people see the benefits of the ACA, and as it continues to save thousands and thousands (someday millions of lives) he will still be remembered as one of the framers and originators of this health care system.....yet at this point he is turning and running the opposite direction from his greatest political accomplishment.

Think about it really, he must have a mental illness, sociopathic or something, to be looking at his list of greatest accomplishments while in office and crossing off the first one on the list, the one he championed and put his name on.

That would be like the person who invented Monopoly running for greatest game maker in history by saying how stupid and bad of a game Monopoly is.

It is beyond comprehension. I'm still convinced the Repubes are trying to lose this year, there is nothing else that can explain it. Why would they want to lose this so badly?!?!

which is not known for its critical thinking skills.
They get all of their info from Faux, and once Mitt or Rush or someone like that tells them that "Romneycare" as a name was made up by Obama, or something like that, they will blindly believe.
You are applying logic where no logic exists.
What worries me is the governors saying they will not implement the ACA because Mitt will just be repealing it after the election.
It is sort of like the fix is in, the votes are "counted", the campaigning is just an excuse to wash huge sums of money through the media.

I do think he is a sociopath. Representing sociopaths.
