BBCW's Wacky Liberal of the Year 2011: #1 Mitt Romney

The 2012 presidential election should have been an easy victory for the GOP. However, the GOP once again has forgotten to learn the lesson that liberal Republicans don't energize the base. For some strange reason as the GOP establishment uses the words "repeal and replace" at the rallying cry against Obamacare, they obviously have picked Mitt Romney as the chosen one in 2012.

Yes, the same Mitt Romney that took a healthcare package that was the alternative to Hillarycare created by Republicans and the Heritage Foundation in 1994 with its forced mandate that forces people to purchase healthcare insurance and made it the law of the land in Massachusetts. Of course, Romneycare became the inspiration for Obamacare and by February this year, Barack Obama himself was singing the praises of Mitt Romney and his big government socialized healthcare system.

So Romney "the chosen one" nomination will take Obamacare off the debate table, no matter how many times Romney cites the Tenth Amendment--something I doubt he seriously believes in. In the GOP's chosen one--we will get four more years of Barack Obama, because the Tea Party base is going to see the hypocrisy of Mitt and the GOP, who I have always predicted will fail at reversing Obamacare once they realize the power and lobbyist money that's in it for them.

Because the irony of the 2012 election is simply the ignorance of the GOP to push a Romney nomination and removing the Obamacare debate, and the fact that Mitt Romney is a liberal who appears he will be successful enough to fool enough people that he is a conservative even after pushing the pilot program for Obamacare, the wolf in sheep's clothing wins this year's BBCW Wacky Liberal of the Year Award.

Before I end this, let's look at the success of Ronmeycare in Massachusetts. The New York Post pointed out about Romneycare:

In fact, we have already seen the start of this process in Massachusetts, where Mitt Romney’s health care reforms were nearly identical to President Obama’s. Romney’s reforms increased the demand for health care but did nothing to expand the supply of physicians. In fact, by cracking down on insurance premiums, Massachusetts pushed insurers to reduce their payments to providers, making it less worthwhile for doctors to expand their practices. As a result, the average wait to get an appointment with a doctor grew from 33 days to over 55 days.

By the way, there are a lot of other issues that prove Mitt Romney is a leftist...
