Some insight into RomneyCare and why Midknight Review is not excited about his candidacy

Here is a story we found in the Nashua Telegraph that tells the truth about RomneyCare. It is universally agreed that RomneyCare is about to bankrupt Massachusetts State. Midknight Review will support a Romney candidacy but will not back his Primary efforts at gaining the GOP nomination. This story factors into our reasons for this decision. On the other hand, we would support Tim Pawlenty, or Eric Cantor or Paul Ryan -- to name a few. Sarah Palin is near the top of our list as well, but for very different reasons. We believe that Palin "will serve if asked," but is not actively seeking the Presidency. She is Miss Middle America, and is willing to spend her capital as a celebrity conservative and past politician to advance the grassroots conservative movement and help to keep it on track.

Here is the news brief:

Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, a potential Republican presidential contender in 2012, said universal health care in Massachusetts is no model the nation should follow.

“The plan is dramatically propped up by federal money,” he said. “Take that away and there would be dire economic consequences.

“Looking at the Massachusetts experience, it would not be one I would want for the country to follow any further.’’

Now that Congress passed the health care reform law, the Massachusetts health experience could become even more a critical bellwether for Mitt Romney’s second run for president, in 2012.

During an interview with The Sunday Telegraph, Pawlenty didn’t mention Romney by name, but he relayed how Massachusetts state Treasurer Tim Cahill warned that a national version of the Massachusets law could bankrupt the country in four years -- read the full story here. Please note our recommendation: it is a rather long news story but worth the read -- jds.
