So the patron replies: viewing politics in the form of only three possible "camps" one can be in is overly simplistic and really quite infantile.

I'm a liberal when it comes to gay marriage, a moderate when it comes to taxation and a conservative when it comes to government regulation of employee benefits. So what? It's not a criticism that someone has elements of all three.

Originally posted by sh76Well, true. But the problem with Mitt is that he is all three on the same issues - depending on where he's running for office and who he's talking to. He's not the only pol who tries to play different sides of the fence. He's just taken it to extremes.
