In reply to the discussion: Mitt Romney Abortion Stance Changes, As Candidate Says He Won't Push To Restrict Access [View all]MizzM
(77 posts)36. The return of Massachusetts Mitt
One of Mitt's talking points is how he worked across the aisle with the Democrats in Massachusetts to get it done. With a Demo advantage of 87%, I guess he had to. The thing is, though, Massachusetts Mitt was not the same Mitt as the "Severely Conservative" Mitt that campaigned the past year-and-a-half to appease the tea party folks. This guy would never have been elected in Massachusetts if he were that conservative. No one makes it in Massachusetts who is tea-party conservative. But look who has just shown up again - Mass. Mitt! Give me a break. Who knows what he thinks? Does he know what he thinks?

It does not matter what position he needs at any time he has had the position. Can we trust him?
