Romney spokesperson cites Massachusetts health law
A Mitt Romney spokesperson offered an unusual counterattack Tuesday to an ad in which a laid-off steelworker blames the presumptive GOP nominee for his family losing health care: If that family had lived in Massachusetts, it would have been covered by the former governors universal health care law.
To that point, if people had been in Massachusetts, under Governor Romneys health care plan, they would have had health care, Andrea Saul, Romneys campaign press secretary, said during an appearance on Fox News.

(52,188 posts)obama would be running on the health insurance law as his signature legislative accomplishment and rmoney would be trying to neutralize that by trying to take credit for doing it first at the state level.
looks like ms. saul had a momentary lapse of insanity and forgot about that whole thing where the republicans went all-in against health insurance reform.

Nothing like a good backhanded "compliment."

I can't wait to see all the commentary by the talking heads about why Romney lost the election when he loses it in November.
Of course, the fact that he is really fundamentally flawed and has never had a firm opinion or taken a stand and kept with it on any issue will never be mentioned.
