mit romney urge brocco bomber to embrace the individual mandate for health care
and two thousand nine
this is a huge deal
this should be a campaign breaker
from mit romney lewis what has been the number one issue from conservatives
about mit romney
number one issue from comes from a person conservative sprite
was uh... his healthcare plan in massachusetts right and what was his
explanation all along
more why he did that
but why you should still vote for mature republican in twenty twelve
when he talks about it he says that it works and it makes sense in that
oklahoma should have asked him how to better implement his plan
that was that he said more than a yeah i know here's the thing
the mit romney line has been
in massachusetts
it was okay the individual health care and that meant it was okay
but it is not something
that should be done at the federal level the the fed individual mandate should
not exist at the federal level well it turns out the list
then in july of two thousand nine
mit romney called on president obama
to require americans to buy insurance as part of his health care plan using tax
penalties as a backstop
in other words and individual mandate the same individual mandate
he claims to oppose at the federal level
and the same individual mandate that republicans
oppose
and this is from a u_s_a_ today article uh... op ed titled mr president what's
the rush
which is available at mit romney central dot com
romney urged obama to quote learn a thing or two about health care reform
for ms massachusetts plan which contain the same policy
an italian as effective
now obama
oppose that approach in this two thousand a campaign he wasn't even on
board with romney opposed an individual matter romney favored an individual
mandate
when obama opposed it now eventually it did
become part of the bill that became blind march of twenty ten
republicans hated mitt romney says hey it was good for at this at the state
level states should be able to do that
not at the federal level
this is a huge revelation this could and should damage mitt romney's chances with
republicans
but we know he's going to wordsmith is way out of it he's going to say listen
i said he should look at it
but not that he should do it he should look at it you know what it's like
and then not do it i mean is that it's going to be a word sniffing type
argument from mit romney alice
yeah will go up to resume his way uh... through this one
but um...
he has already said before publicly
he would have helped obama implement
a federal plan so i mean this kinda isn't
new news so it's not nobody's list it's been kind of
covered up by a lot of new statements right and this is from a to b uh... a
remember
that he says
that's uh...
there is a distinction between the setup using at the state level and at the
federal level but the reality is
that he implies the massachusetts approach is ideal at the federal level
he doesn't make that distinction he says the lessons we learned in massachusetts
could help washington finding a better way
that's pretty clear to me and but we have to assume he's going to try to
wordsmith his way out of it what do you think the time
i mean even without this news it's cuz
a contradiction i mean
he should be proud of what he did not cities that's here on early he probably
is proud
in private life if you if you work together my off the record
which she would never do
he would probably say yeah what we did was great
and yet he talked about as if he's ashamed of it
or as they have it he it has no bearing at all on his position on what we should
do nationally for health care
now it with this new news we know that even that's not true ivory who knows
where he would say off the record in private
for what he thinks but uh...
i think
what i think he will be
the nominee and i think when he is all the focus will be on his foot flops
right now and they're focusing on so many different g_o_p_ candidates i think
it's the cedar
for him to weasel his way through this but i think when the focus is on him
e it's going to be a much bigger problem
