The funny thing about attacking Romney based on his faith is that there are perfectly legitimate reasons to question him. Like his uncanny ability to redefine his politics for every election.

If, as it's been said, that there is a gay gene; and if it could be recognized in a fetus within the first trimester; would folks be more inclined to support Romney if as President he mandated that only fetuses with the gay gene could be aborted and the stem cells could then be used for researching cures for Michael J. Fox.
After all, the homosexual community would be vindicated in that it would be proven that homosexuality is not a choice; abortions would continue which would make the NOW crowd happy; and stem cell research would happen.

I ran into this article which is a nice, brief summary of the image challenges each of the frontrunning candidates is facing. I've never heard of the publication before, but the author at least looks legitimate. |

Okay. Besides abortion, gays, guns, and certain taxes, where has he changed?
Abortion. Few politicians spend their entire careers with consistent views on abortion. Al Gore was once pro-life, as was John Forbes Kerry. Okay, John Kerry is a bad example. I don't think there is a Democratic politician in the country who hasn't changed positions on gays (no pun intended) in the last five years, specifically gay marriage. Once gay marriage became a cause celebre among the cultural elite, the Dems flocked to it. But now that I think about it, Romney has been consistent on gay marriage. He opposed it in his 2002 campaign (as did Shannon O'Brien). How did he flip flop on gays? Guns. Yeah, that's probably posturing. Certain taxes. I'm not sure what you mean by this one. I'll have to take your word for it. |
