Why can't we just call it what it really is...Romneycare?

How Mitt he expect to distance himself from a scheme he came up with? If he keeps this issue at the center of his campaign, he will certainly lose.

Update:

    A Republican governor implemented a plan put together by a right-wing think tank, including the individual mandate.

    But when Obama started supporting it, suddenly the conservatives were against it. Flip-flopping? Racism? Doing anything to win? Hard to tell, but it is strange.

    We should! In fact, we should thank Romney even more for the fact that in 2007/2008, he was praising the individual mandate because he said that Hillary or Obama would socialize our medicine. What a great guy!

    Romneycare was created with the interests of Massachusetts in mind. It wasn't a one-size-fits-all plan for the entire country.

    Because it's not state mandated, it's federal.

    And may I recommend an 8th grade social studies class? It should clear up any other confusion you have toward the basics of government.
