Romney adviser: Psyche!

This is getting good.

``[Romney's] been a pro-life Mormon faking it as a pro-choice friendly,'' Michael Murphy is quoted as saying in the cover story of the not-yet-released June 20 issue of National Review.

Murphy said he was misunderstood.

``The quote in the National Review article was not what I meant to communicate,'' he wrote on the letterhead of his Washington-based firm yesterday. ``I was discussing a characterization the governor's critics use. I regret the quote and any confusion it might have caused.''
Ah, so what you really said was:
Romney's been a pro-life Mormon faking it as a pro-choice friendly, is something I'd say if I were from the kingdom of liars.
Uh huh. Romney ran against Ted Kennedy in 1994, claiming he was just as pro-gay as Ted Kennedy. He even had the gay GOP group Log Cabin Republicans on his side. But then, suddenly, Romney decides he wants to run for president and needs to be a Christian conservative to get elected (even though he's a Mormon - can't wait to see the religious right elect a Mormon as prez, yeah that'll be the day). So, suddenly Romney is Mr. Family Values Defender. Uh huh.

He's pro-gay, he's anti-gay. He's pro-life, he's pro-choice, he's pro-life again! The incredibly changing Massachusetts politician. Anyone else think this sounds awfully familiar?
