The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney plans to spend as much as $40 million of his $250 million fortune on his campaign. Is this the same Mitt Romney who once ruled out the possibility of self-financing his campaign as "akin to a nightmare"?
Is this the same Mitt Romney who once said that abortion should be "safe and legal" and now describes himself as "consistently pro-life"?
Is this the same Mitt Romney who once angrily distanced himself from Ronald Reagan, stating he was an "independent during the time of Reagan/Bush and did not want to return to Reagan/Bush" and now praises the Gipper as "a president of strength"?
Is this the same Mitt Romney who, when running for the US Senate in 1994, spoke of his desire to make "equality for gays and lesbians a mainstream concern" and whose website now features a commitment to pass a constitutional amendment "defining marriage as between one man and one woman"?
"Consistency", Oscar Wilde once said, "is the last refuge of the unimaginative".
Mitt Romney is clearly a man with a vivid imagination.
