Don't they all flip flop when it suits their agenda ?
Too bad people have such short memories.

You'd think YouTube would make politicians think twice about trying to get away with a flip-flop, but it doesn't. Mitt shot himself in the foot on this one. Too bad. Of all the Republicans running he's the only one who doesn't scare the pants off me. I like elections where if your guy doesn't win at least you know the country is still in reasonably good hands.

Only fake conservatives could vote for a charlatan like Romney who has no principles and will tell the duped masses what they want to hear. Here is a better article where Mitt writes this :
Quote:
IF General Motors, Ford and Chrysler get the bailout that their chief executives asked for yesterday, you can kiss the American automotive industry goodbye. It won’t go overnight, but its demise will be virtually guaranteed.Without that bailout, Detroit will need to drastically restructure itself. With it, the automakers will stay the course — the suicidal course of declining market shares, insurmountable labor and retiree burdens, technology atrophy, product inferiority and never-ending job losses. Detroit needs a turnaround, not a check.
But when Mitt was in Michigan at a auto plant he says this :
Quote:
“The question is, where is Washington?” Mr. Romney said, speaking to a gaggle of reporters across from a General Motors transmission plant near Ypsilanti, where 200 layoffs were announced this week. “Where does it stop? Is there a point at which someone says ‘enough’? Or are we going to allow the entire domestic automotive manufacturing industry to disappear?”

I do not mind posters voting for Mitt they have that right but spare us the BS that you are a conservative and so is Mitt when that time comes

Hard to keep up with the flips and flops of GOP candidates. They need to give us a web site that gives the next weeks positions.

Oh please.....Obummer flip flops on a daily basis. Pretty much the MO of the democrat party. So the GOP may be doing some of the same. So what? Just par for the course. Nothing else to see hear - move on.
