Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney called President Obama’s health-care bill “unconstitutional” and predicted it would cost the president a second term in office:
SALT LAKE CITY — Former presidential hopeful Mitt Romney is the latest Republican to slam the health care reform bill.
“I think it weakens America, I think it’s wrong for the country,” Romney told reporters Monday at a book signing near his La Jolla, Calif., vacation home. “I think the process is frightening, and as a result of that I think that it’s important for us to get things right.”
Romney calls the legislation “unconstitutional.”
“My belief is this bill, taking an incursion into the commerce of various states, violates the constitution,” Romney said.
Romney says the measure will ultimately cost Pres. Barack Obama a second term.
Romney still isn’t committing to a 2012 run for the White House, saying he will make a decision after this fall’s midterm elections.
