"In fact, he says that he wished a stimulus bill was passed before George W. Bush (then still the president) left office."
Regarding abortion: "Romney admits he changed his mind on this critical social issue. The question is whether you think he did it for political reasons or because he genuinely changed his mind because of what he learned during a debate over stem-cell research. Our colleague Kathleen Parker looked into the story and concluded “this was at least a flip-flop of the highest order"..
"Thirteen years later, Romney was speaking at the Reagan library, where of course he would lavish praise on the Gipper. Different political moments, different political miens. We don’t see anything fishy about how the DNC used these clips. This is a clear flip-flop..
Mitt obviously flipped on the most critical of issues and was ambiguous on others. The author of this article choose to give Mitt some excuses for some of his flops but that will be for the voters to decide. With Mitt morphing into a different Mitt as we speak, voters are taking notice and his support is eroding.

He thought there should have been a different type of stimulus program, as pointed out in the article. Not a flip flop.
According to the article, he flip-flopped on abortion, the no tax pledge, and his views on Reagan. How are any of these three "the most critical of issues"?
His views on Reagan aren't an actual "issue." A tax pledge isn't an actual "issue" either. Taxes are an issue of course, but "pledges"? Not so much...
As far as abortion, he changed his stance. Is he never allowed to change his stance on even one issue without being labeled a "serial flip-flopper"? Either way, his stance on abortion doesn't matter to me because I don't choose candidates to support/vote for based on that issue.
