And he must be turning over in his grave at the behavior of his son.

Didn’t see the Globe until this afternoon and was astounded to see the editorial with the above title.  It reads, “Mitt Romney has set the stage for a substantive discussion of health care reform among Republican presidential candidates – a discussion that goes well beyond the tweets and sound bites that most of his potential competitors have offered.”

<

p>Here’s what he said in New Hampshire this weekend:

He said “Obamacare” — the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act — needs to be repealed and the other programs reformed.
Defending the Massachusetts health care program passed during his governorship, Romney said, “Our experiment wasn’t perfect; some things worked, some didn’t, and some things I’d change. One thing I would never do is usurp the constitutional power of states with a one-size-fits-all federal takeover.”

And…

“Obamacare is bad law, bad policy, and it is bad for America’s families, and that’s one reason President Obama will be a one-term president,”

Ah, that “elevated debate.” Thanks Boston Globe.

for what HE will do.  Criticizes Obama and democrats incessantly but has yet to say what he would have done differently or what he will do going forward.  He just doesn’t know.  This is about the prize for him and those around him.

Under Romney the state actually lost manufacturing jobs and the only reason the state didn’t rank 49th or 50th is the effects of Katrina on the Gulf Coast states.

I love this.

Just one of the many things that have always bothered me about Romney is what the British political theorist David Runciman calls “second order hypocrisy.” The second-order hypocrite is self-righteous about his self-righteousness, complaisant in his complaisance. He is “one who pretends to the public that double-dealing and hypocrisy, though endemic, are not inevitable-and that he is a beacon of sincerity in a corrupt and hypocritical world.”

<

p>That sounds like SO many Republicans to me.
