I Agree With Romney On This

From TPM:
Here’s how Mitt Romney is deflecting the flip-flopper charge this time around:

“In the private sector, if you don’t change your view when the facts change, you’ll get fired for being stupid,” Romney told a town hall in New Hampshire, according to ABC News. * * *
I actually think this is going to work. Everyone is worried about Romney's record of flip-flopping, but I predict that it won't play much of a part in the general election. As Clinton famously said during the run-up to the 1992 election, "It's the economy, stupid." Bottom line: If the economy improves over the next few months, Obama will win. If it doesn't improve, then we'll have a real fight on our hands.
