Like he will if he becomes the president, Romney is following the right-wing crowd, not leading it. Very odd stuff. The normal way for this stuff to work is for the presidential candidate and his campaign to supply the talking points to the pundits, not for the presidential candidate to conform his talking points to what the pundits are saying.
Well... I can see where he would say argumentatively that, because legitimately, it hasn't been a tax passed by Congress. Therefore, it is illegitimate as a tax, and not appropriate to call it one just yet. The court has ruled it MUST be a tax, but it wasn't passed as a tax by Congress... so what to do now? We can't call it a tax and we can't not call it a tax. Hence, there are two sides to the argument.
1) Do you belive that is what he was doing?
2) So now you have evolved from "the entire thing is a tax" to "There are two sides to the Argument."
Was the penalty Romey applied in Mass a tax?
