Ok if this is not the biggest Flip Flopper of all time- Romney who since the primaries has been boasting that he will repeal Romneycare oops I meant Obamacare(sorry they so similar I confuse the two) on Day 1 if elected- much to the joy of the Teanuts- now says they he would keep 2 provisions of Obamacare- 1) the law that allows people with preexisting conditions to keep coverage and 2) Keeping children on their parents insurance until the age of 26.
Now this surely will piss off the TeaNuts who won't the bill repealed in it's entirety.
To JoeBloe, Whirlway, IB and you other Repugs- doesn't it seem strange that a man who helped craft Obamacare and was so adamant about repealing Obamacare now says he likes certain laws of Obamacare??? This is going to get interesting during the debates.

Yes he can ... no he can't. Well maybe it depends on whether his mouth is moving.

Yeah! On what side of the coin are all the Rmoney supporters on THIS Flip Flop?

What has happened to this man who actually passed the forerunner of Obamacare in MA and then said he would repeal Obamacare on Day One if elected?

Calling ALL Teapublicans!

JoeBloe, Whirly, COF, et all. Tell us why your candidate flip flops on every issue and has no jobs plan, no health care plan and no other plans except lowering taxes for the wealthiest Americans?
Explain how keeping some aspects of ObamacareTax in a revised Romney healthcare plan is a flip flop ?

Can Obamacaretax be repealed AND the replacement legislation has pre-existing condition coverage ?

If so, how is that flip flopping ?

My candidate hasn't flip-flopped. But he's "unelectable".

Moronic is not understanding that the legislation can be repealed; and the replacement legislation keep some elements of the previous legislation. That is not flip flopping. Especially since replacement legislation will gut the bulk of ObamacareTax, especially the big bureaucratic mandates.

What is so hard to understand about that difference ?

Again, how is that "flip flopping" ??

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn
And Romney hasn't backed away from that pledge....

And ObamacareTax has to be killed; it can't be improved on the edges. It is a massive bureaucratic takeover; Romney's plan will be more market driven, get rid of the mandate, be less centralized planning, and return more decision making to the patient/insured.

Obama had his chance to compromise...that opportunity has come and gone. Now that it looks like you might lose, you start with the whining over compromises....Nope !
