Romney (Reform-MA) on Republicans

19 September, 2007 (10:42) | Uncategorized | By: soren

Mitt Romney’s new ad says that too many Republicans "act like Democrats". Quotes:
When Republicans act like Democrats, America loses.
It is time for Republicans to start acting like Republicans.

Of course, this is the same guy who said:
My R doesn’t so much stand for Republican as Reform

Jonathan Martin asked recently why people dislike Romney so [...]

Romney’s Clinton problem

17 September, 2007 (06:38) | Uncategorized | By: soren

Drudge is pushing a story about Hillary Clinton’s health care plan. While Drudge focused on the dollar amount, I saw this:
The centerpiece of Clinton’s plan is the so-called "individual mandate," requiring everyone to have health insurance — just as most states require drivers to purchase auto insurance. Rival John Edwards has also offered a plan [...]

Romney says Rudy Mitt-flopped on immigration

15 August, 2007 (17:36) | Uncategorized | By: soren

I just don’t believe this. Here’s what Mitt Romney has to say about Rudy Giuliani on immigration:
“Mayor Giuliani hopefully will explain why there’s such a dramatic departure from his position as mayor, where he said he welcomed illegal aliens to New York, and that they would be in a zone of protection in New York [...]

Romney flip-flops on abortion … again

I just don’t believe this guy:

Before: Federalism
After: No Federalism

No shame. Or integrity. Sam Brownback beats Mitt Romney up on abortion, so Romney flip-flops again. ABC has the full story. But here’s what Romney told Marc Ambinder back in February:

NJ: You would favor a constitutional amendment banning abortion with exceptions for the life of the [...]

Romney says he’s a perfect 10

6 August, 2007 (18:59) | Uncategorized | By: soren

Romney called himself a perfect 10, according to Brendan Farrington:
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney placed himself alongside President Reagan as the perfect conservative during a campaign event Monday.
While answering questions at a luncheon, Romney was asked where he would rate himself as a conservative on a scale of 1 to 10 if Reagan [...]

Kevin Madden making stuff up

13 June, 2007 (16:31) | Uncategorized | By: soren

I was going to steer clear of the current John McCain-Mitt Romney fight over Romney’s abortion record. But then Kevin Madden said something silly:

"Governor Romney is firmly pro-life and can rely on his record of having protected the sanctity of life when faced with those issues as governor.
Governor Romney consistently maintained, in an effort to [...]

Border security group attacks Romney for flip-flopping on immigration

Tasty quotes, full release after the jump:

In 2006 Governor Romney supported the President’s immigration policy as well as the McCain-Kennedy bill.  He expressed support for an immigration program that places large numbers of illegal residents on the path toward citizenship and said illegal immigrants should have a chance to obtain citizenship.

He even went as far [...]

30 May, 2007 (11:01) | Uncategorized | By: soren

A number of Mitt Romney’s supporters have pulled out a 1994 campaign flier and argued that it shows that he has always been a conservative. First of all, one might wonder why a conservative in 1994 would have opposed the Contract with America and called it "partisan".. That wasn’t my reading of it.
I was struck [...]
