Delusional: Romney Claims Romneycare Will Be “One Of My Best Assets”

Mitt Romney has a serious flaw. He is unable to admit he made a mistake. Signing Romneycare was a huge mistake. Any law that vastly expands the power and scope of government into private medical care and tramples private rights by forcing people to buy a product they don't want is wrong. Romney's failure to be able to make that admission and apologize to his supporters will cost him the Presidency.

(CNN) — Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney said Monday that the issue of health care will be “one of my best assets” if he goes on to win the Republican nomination and debate President Barack Obama in the general election.

“And I’ll say to him, why didn’t you give me a call? I would have told you what to do right and what not to do,” Romney said to laughter at Sen. Jim DeMint’s forum in South Carolina Monday.

On April 12, 2006, then-Gov. Romney signed into law a health care plan that would insure almost every resident of Massachusetts. The lynchpin of the law was an insurance mandate requiring those in Massachusetts to get health insurance. The law gave 8 percent of the state’s population the right, Romney said, noting that under Obama’s plan everyone is required to get insurance — something he called unconstitutional.
