Romney Campaign Completely Validates Obamacare While Defending Against Controversial Ad
by Tommy Christopher
In an appearance on Fox News Channel with anchor Bill Hemmer, Mitt Romney campaign spokesperson Andrea Saul turned her defense against a controversial SuperPAC ad into a de facto endorsement of President Obama's signature legislative accomplishment. While trying to dodge responsibility for Romney's actions as Bain Capital CEO, Saul noted that “If people had been in Massachusetts, under Governor Romney’s health care plan, they would have had health care.”
The ad has been a hot political topic since its release Tuesday morning, and despite Hemmer’s helpful partial reading of the facts surrounding the ad, Saul stepped on a gargantuan rake by citing her candidate’s Massachusetts health care plan. Romney took a lot of flak over the plan he put into place as Governor of Massachusetts, but has tried to differentiate his plan from President Obama‘s by claiming he never supported mandated health insurance on a national level (which is a flat-out lie that the media never calls him on).
But by pointing out that Joe Soptic’s wife would have had health care had she lived in Massachusetts (although it wasn’t enacted until the year she died of cancer), Saul is not just touting Romneycare, she’s touting it as something that should have been available everywhere, while in the next breath saying that their campaign’s raison d’etre is to remove from office the man who made it available to everyone. Expect Saul to be the star of a Democratic campaign ad sometime soon.
