Mitt Romney said he was unwavering pro-choice, but he has flip-flopped and now says he is pro-life:
We had earlier posted videos of Mitt Romney's effective pro-choice stand on abortion. Now he says he is pro-life. Is this a flip-flop, or has he come full circle on this issue?
While governor of Massachusetts he was pro-choice and said he would not waver on that stand. But he seems to have wavered big time:
Mitt Romney's Flip Flop on Abortion
Well what a flip-flop. To get elected governor of Massachusetts he needed to be pro-choice. To get the 2008 Republican presidential nomination he needs to be pro-life but he just does not come out and say that, instead he said his position has "evolved". His advisor Michael Murphy said that "he's been a pro-life Mormon faking it as a pro-choice friendly." Makes you wonder if he was ever pro-choice to begin with. Is Mitt Romney a political opportunist? We just hope he respects states rights. In Nevada we had two elections to put the pro-choice position in our state constitution. We can live with his pro-life position as long as he respects our state constitution. This would be terrible if this becomes a big campaign issue. Nothing worse than another big debate on abortion, especially with the huge problems facing the country. We got no problem with Mitt being a Mormon. A huge plus for Governor Romney - his business background but we wonder about his track record as governor of Massachusetts. Jim Cramer called him the best businessman in North America. The next president will need those skills. Those skills are more important than his position on abortion, unless he decides to shove his latest opinion on abortion down the rest of the country's throat.
A real positive for the Mitt Romney campaign is Ann Romney. Here is a video on the decision to run for president. While still upset about Mitt's flip-flop on abortion, we think Ann would be an excellent first lady:
One thing we can all can agree with is we should support the troops. We support the "Surge of Support" for the troops:

Should candidates have to answer questions from a snowman?
Mitt is not the only republican who does not want to answer a question from a snowman:
We are still confused on when Mitt changed his position on abortion:
