Mitt Romney is working hard to position himself as the “conservative GOP presidential hopeful”, reports the Examiner. He is already attacking Rudi Giuliani and, especially, John McCain for not being – in his eyes – conservative enough. The issue – of course – gay marriage:
Romney was less charitable to McCain, who on Sunday told ABC News: “I believe that the issue of gay marriage should be decided by the states.� McCain also said, “I believe that gay marriage should not be legal.�
Romney seized on the remarks.
“That’s his position, and in my opinion, it’s disingenuous,� he said. “Look, if somebody says they’re in favor of gay marriage, I respect that view. If someone says — like I do — that I oppose same–sex marriage, I respect that view. But those who try and pretend to have it both ways, I find it to be disingenuous.�
Yeah, yeah.
Now we have dealt with that…
Where are the Goldwater Conservatives?
