But wasn't what Romney did in Massachusettes implementing many ideas from other Republicans? Didn't DeMint once support mandatory coverage along with other Republicans? I'll grant you that was several years ago but so was when Romney signed this bill. Is DeMint a RINO?

And the Democratic party. One of many reasons thinking individuals reject the two major parties.

....you so realize you are posting in a thread that starts with an article about how ideologues are turning on members of the establishment they view as ideologically impure?
