Flip-flop?

I enjoy reading Darrell Delamaid's columns: he is a thoughtful, and thought-provoking writer. I happen to disagree with him about Mitt Romeny, but that might be a prejudiced viewpoint (as I dislike Romney).

The conventional wisdom might be right and Romney may indeed find that taking care of the health of the people in Massachusetts has irreparably damaged his political health. And Romney continues to do his share of pandering to the tea party, but at least he’s showing that he can stick to something.

The extreme right will need pandering to all through the early phases of the campaign, and it will not be long before Romney either tilts further right by flip-flopping, or loses traction and gets walked over by others less reluctant to openly pander and grovel.
