Today David Brooks, an op-ed columnist for the New York Times, praised Governor Romney for moving to the moderate center in the debate. Brooks said Mitt had the courage to take on the Tea Party wing of the Republican Party.
Here’s my problem with Brooks’ analysis. How do we know Romney really believes what he said in the debate? How do we know he just wasn’t taking the position de jour? How can we trust this guy to have any principles at all when he switches back and forth depending on how the political winds are blowing? Our Carbon County Obama coordinator noted that if Romney were a computer program, this would be Romney version 6.
If people are smart, they won't trust Mr. Etch-A-Sketch. As for Mr Brooks, it just goes to show that he can't see the forest for the trees. Where the hell has he been for the last year?
