Mitt Romney Plans to End Medicare

[cthulu2016]

All the nuance about Bain Capital and who tied what to the roof is surreal, to me.

A major party candidate for President of the United States of America wants to end the medicare program.

Until such time that Romney puts forward a specific, detailed proposal for what he wants to do with Medicare that is radically different from the Ryan budget he supports then there is nothing else to talk about. There is nothing else to run on.

Just sayin'

1. Big surprise

2. Do you think he'll etch-a-sketch on that position?

I suspect he'll end up wanting to raise the eligibility age like Obama has supported. Maybe add a few free-market frills.

3. I have no doubt of it, and the right way to handle

an etch-a-sketch candidate is to make him do the etch-a-sketch on YOUR timetable, not his.

Force the issue so the thrashing to pretzel to the general election position happens in public.

Hence the OP. No Dem should have said anything about anything for months other than, "Mitt Romney has stated that he plans to end Medicare."

Force him to abandon the Ryan plan on TV. Don't wait for him to present some dumb, vague policy paper in September that forgets the Ryan plan ever existed.

4. Good point. I agree. nt

5. Of course he does

Now that the radical right-fringe controls the GOP, Mitt is going to do whatever it asks of him.

he wants to do with Medicare that is radically different from the Ryan . U.S. federal deficits, surpluses, and debt under various plans. ... Medicare: Starting in 2022, the proposal would end the current Medicare program for all Americans born after 1956 .... Very frankly, that's not a path we want to go down again."
