In the 2012 campaign, which Mitt will we get? – The Washington Post
By Eugene Robinson, Monday, April 16, 6:28 PMThe Washington Post
It’s all over but the shouting — or, in this case, the polite applause: Mitt Romney is going to be the Republican presidential nominee. But which Mitt Romney? Will it be Mitt One or Mitt Two?
This is not an inconsequential question. Mitt One is a fiscally conservative, socially moderate, Wall Street-style Republican who believes in compromise to get things done. Mitt Two is a far-right zealot who accuses Democrats of trying to impose godless socialism and claims that what hangs in the balance this fall is nothing less than liberty itself. …
The presidential debates shouldn’t be much of a chore for Obama this fall. He can just stand by while Romney argues with himself.
