Romney's Views On Gay Marriage: Also Evolving?

[maddezmom]

Unlike Obama, Romney says he hasn't changed at all. "I have the same view that I've had since running for office," he said.

But that could depend on which office he means. Back when Romney was running for the U.S. Senate in 1994, he promised to be a champion for "full equality" for gays and lesbians — which many understood to include even gay marriage.

"His campaign distributed at the gay pride parade pink flyers that asserted that he would be a better and a stronger advocate than Ted Kennedy," recalls lobbyist Arlene Isaacson.

She says just a few years later, by 2002 — after Romney was elected governor and a court made gay marriage legal in Massachusetts — everything changed.

1. Actually he said "I have the same view that I've had since-a, since-a running for office". Don't

forget the 'since-as'.

2. Marriage equality is more important to the Romney family than being US citizens.

In a quirk of history, tho, Mexico threw them out.

Aren't we lucky.
