Interesting site.

That's just the tip of the iceberg.

Nothing new here, Romney's conservative credentials have always been suspect at best.

I realize almost all politicians flip flop but I have not seen someone do it as much as Romney. It seems like every night on CNN, there is another thing they play a clip on from years ago and then now and its two different things he is saying.

I like how they are concisely listed and referenced. It appeals to my organizational side. It's an interesting glimpse into a man who will literally say anything to become president.

I have a great respect for someone who stands by their opinions, values, morals etc, even if I do not agree with them than someone who says what each person wants to hear and will sell out their morals, values and opinions. To me that is what Romney seems to be doing.

If group A is pro choice, he will comment in a way that he is too. Then next month its a speech where they are pro life so he comments to make him seem pro life. All this does is make no one want to vote for you, I would think.

All politicians flip-flop. Politifact.com has a large compilation of documented flops by American politicians. It is not always a bad thing. To change ones position when new evidence is brought to light is the rational thing to do. The problem is Rommney has been on both sides of pretty much every major issue and he hasn't changed his opinions because new evidence has come to light but for political gain. I've heard it said that the only consistent position Romney has held is that he should be President.

Just from that site alone here is the list of issues Mitt has flip flopped on.

- The stimulus
- Reagan Policies/Ideologies
- Immigration
- Education
- Stem Cells
- Taxes
- Health Care
- Gun Control
- Auto Rescue
- Race to the Top
- Minimum Wage
- TARP
- Abortion

So, basically just about every major issue of any importance.

I agree that the only thing he's been consistent on is that he believes he should be president.

Ironically enough, if he had stayed as he was in Massachusetts I may have just voted for him. Not a chance in hell now. I don't know who this man is. Hell, I don't even know if he knows who he is.

The number one reason not to vote for him. You don't know how he is going to lead with his finger in the air testing all of the time. Dangerous, very dangerous. Might work out, but I'm not inclined to take a chance on someone like that.

I see.

Will he keep "evolving" once he's elected?
