When questioned on his pro-life bona fides by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney defended himself through a lengthy explanation of his role as Governor of a very blue state. Romney pointed out that there was no mention of abortion in the Massachusetts health care reform bill he signed, that he didn’t have a litmus test for judges, and he vetoed a bill that went to far on the morning after bill. But he also admitted he may not have to most stringent anti-abortion record.
“By the way, is there any possibility I’ve ever made a mistake in that regard? I didn’t see something I should have seen?” Romney asked rhetorically. “Possibly. You can count on me as president of the united states to pursue a policy that protects the life of unborn, whether here in this country or overseas. I’ll reverse the policies of this President.”
