Correction – An earlier version of this wire quoted Romney as saying he didn’t know what Medicaid was until he got into government. On listening back to the piece, Romney actually said: “I have to admit I didn’t know all the differences between these things before I got into government.” TPM regrets the error.
Speaking in Iowa Friday, Romney said on the subject of Medicaid, Romney explained that it was an insurance program for the poor, for those who don’t know what it is.
“I have to admit I didn’t know all the differences between these things before I got into government,” Romney said.
