Opinion... Meh...You watched the video, right?
He's playing the state v federal card which just isn't going to resonate and will make him look hypocritical.
If you have something where he supports 0bamacare in it's current abomination, then you'd have the makings of a point...It's a loser for him and he will avoid campaigning against it as a result.
The point remains, if 0bamacare is smacked down by SCOTUS, that's a HUGE failure for your 0ssiah...
His only dissension from Obamacare that I can see is the State vs Federal argument....
And again, if SCOTUS kills the mandate then Romneycare suffers the same death.
He wants you to believe that, but in reality he wanted (though he now denies it) Romneycare to be a model for the entire country.
Romney Laughs Off Previous Support For A National Romneycare As An 'An Exaggeration' | ThinkProgress
Washington Examiner reporter Byron York offered Romney a second chance to explain the benefits of his health care plan. Instead, he tried to laugh off the relevance of his signature achievement as an “exaggeration“:
BYRON YORK: Governor, on health care, you’ve often said that the health care plan that you’ve created in Massachusetts would be a good model for some other states. You said, “Maybe not every state, but most.”
ROMNEY: I don’t think I said “most,” but –
YORK: On “Meet the Press” in 2007.
ROMNEY: Oh did I? Did I make that exaggeration? [Laughs].
YORK: So, what are some of the states that today would benefit by adopting the system that you created in Massachusetts?
ROMNEY: In its entirety? Not very many. Because it’s not even perfect for Massachusetts.
