(When a Redstate front-pager adopts "Multiple Choice Mitt," the Romney campaign has a problem. - promoted by David)
Erick Erickson, the "CEO" of Redstate.com had been a luke-warm supporter of Mitt's Presidential quest. Like many conservatives, Erick is in a bind, trying to decide between Rudy's social liberalism and McCain's "disloyalty". Erick had been sipping from the Romney's kool-aid and believed Mitt was the acceptable balance between the Republican candidate who could win and had the conservative values the right could embrace-despite some reservations.
Well, I don't agree with much of what Erick believes, but I got to give him credit, he figured out what many of us in Massachusetts already knew: that Mitt is a complete phony.
And with his critique of Mitt, Erick has given this race a nice little bumper sticker that capsulates Mitt's campaign and his character:
I think I'm done with the campaign of Willard Mitt Romney. I'm tired of it. His campaign and the potential for his nomination has jumped the shark. No Republican candidate for President has ever more deserved the title "Multiple Choice Mitt."
I'm tired of the explanations and I'm tired of the dodges.
First there was abortion. He was for it, then really for it, then really, really for it, then indifferent to it, and now against it. Some of his supporters and people on his campaign have called Sam Brownback pro-choice. At least Sam has never been multiple choice. And when Sam became pro-life, he actually fought the pro-life fight. I'm not aware of Mitt Romney ever passionately fighting the fight for life. He has, at best, been luke warm -- playing it safe, but not actually advocating. And he's played it so safe, that on stem cell research, he's been willing to split the baby with parental consent.
