Politico, please explain.
Romney supports Romneycare in his state, not at the federal level. Romney is proud of his achievement in Massachusetts because it is what Massachusetts wanted. What Massachusetts wants, and what Massachusetts can afford, is not necessarily what 49 other states want, let alone can afford. Romney realizes this and respects this fact, unlike Obama. On day one, Romney will grant waivers to the states via executive order. States will be free to choose whether or not to have the individual mandate.
Romney believes in state diversity, not Obama's federal conformity. Romney believes the states control Washington whereas Obama believes Washington controls the states. Romney favors decentralized government whereas Obama favors Big Government. Romney wants an America of opportunities, freedom and personal responsibility. Obama wants more and more government until we are without opportunities, without freedom and without responsibility.
Good night, and good luck.
