Obama fears that the Republicans may not nominate Romney?
If Republicans do not nominate Romney, Obama has a problem. His re-election is much more certain if he can run as a firm supporter of Massachusetts Romney care.
Im supposing that Obama is soft peddling that point in the fear of spooking the Republican Party to nominating someone else.
After the Republican convention, we can expect Obama to mention his complete support for Massachusettss Romney care within every single speech he delivers.
The Democratic Partys position will be that Romney is being overly modest of his health plan that Massachusettss voters are so satisfied with.
I expect Obama to proclaim that he would have preferred single payer universal Medicare coverage but Romney care which is the EXACT model for the federal health care act is working so well in Massachusetts that then voters will not give it up. We should adopt whats working well in Massachusetts to similarly serve our entire nation.
Despite all of the money that Romney and his wealthy supporters throw into this 2012 presidential election, this years general election will be a joke.
Regarding the question of a penalty or tax upon those who can afford but refuse to purchase medical insurance:
(A) In Massachusetts this involves less than 1% of Massachusetts citizens.
(B) A minority, but a significant portion of the Supreme Court judges believed it is a penalty rather than a tax.
Does anyone actually believe that any but those already aligned against Obama are concerned because Obama happens to concur with four conservative Supreme Court judges?
Respectfully, Supposn
