Mitt Romney Runs Away from…Mitt Romney

It’s so sad to see a grown man grovel, pander, flip flop, and twist himself into a pretzel of internal illogical and self-contradiction like Mitt Romney’s doing. I mean, this is a guy who, for pretty much his entire career, was a big fan of universal health care, mandates, etc. Now that he’s running for the nomination of a Republican Party that’s lurched far to the right, away from its previous stands on a wide variety of issues (e.g., for individual mandates, for cap and trade), he’s having to run away from himself on pretty much his entire lifetime record, including as the liberal Republican governor of Massachusetts (where he signed “Romneycare” into law). The question is, why would anyone take Mitt Romney seriously at this opint? And why would anyone believe Romney about anything, when clearly he has no intellectual honesty, consistency, or shame of any kind? I don’t get it.
