Of course they have no experience.It's easy for them to sit back and THINK they know everything about running a business.Then when they see an increase they complain how businesses are screwing them!
I am sure that you are unaware that Romney vetoed numerous sections of the Mass. healthcare law but he was overridden by the democratic legislature.
I was aware that he was overridden in some parts of the legislation and I follow pretty close.The bottom line is that the plan has been a mess and sometimes Mitt is running from it and other times he is tooting his horn.
Here is what Mitt said on signing the bill:

State legislators had made changes to the bill over his veto, Romney said, even though when he signed the law he called it “exactly what we’d hoped for.’’ Regardless, he argued during his campaign, he believed that the Massachusetts plan would not necessarily work everywhere and that states should be free to follow their own strategies.
So far, I've not heard one pseudo-"conservative" (pseudo and quotes are necessary because the conservatives are mostly an extinct political animal) acknowledge and explain how can one divorce the criticisms of RomneyCare 2.0 aka ObamieCare from the man whom the GOP not only hailed as one of their top presidential candidates but also was just recently one of the top speakers at their latest convention.
Because it's irrelevant. No matter who signed the law, the results are still the same.

I agree it's pretty dumb to say it was what he hoped for after being overridden. We do know, however, that had he not signed some law his veto would have been overridden anyway. He also said it may not work everywhere.....
