He's not.

Why don't you interpet these comments:

"In his endorsement of King during a campaign event Friday in the congressman’s congressional district, Romney said "I'm looking here at Steve King. He needs to be your Congressman again. I want him as my partner in Washington!"

"Locked in a battle over Latino votes, pro-Obama supporters and campaign officials immediately seized on the endorsement, which came just one day after the conclusion of the Democratic National Convention, which portrayed the Republican Party as anti-immigrant and hostile to Latinos.

The Democratic National Committee jumped on the Romney-King endorsement with a Web video Saturday that concluded in bold letters: "Mitt Romney & Steve King. Partners in extremism."

"Mitt Romney, in particular, was criticized by moderate Republicans and those who favor liberal immigration policies for taking positions on immigration that were far stricter than those of the other GOP candidates.

He said the U.S. government was wrong to fight states like Arizona that pass their own immigration laws, he repeatedly pushes measures in Congress to make English the official language of government business, and he has given some of the most hardline immigration activists – such as Arpaio and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach -- roles in his presidential campaign."


I've noticed you like to cherry pick comments, even when they aren't coming directly from Romney. I could do the same thing with virtually any politician you care to discuss. Why not attempt to comment on the good things you hear too? I still say Romney is the best candidate we've had in decades on the issue that has come this close to being President of the United States. I'm extremely confused as to why you can't see the positives a Romney presidency would mean in dealing with our illegal immigration problem.

Does your real problem with Romney have something to do with his position on other social issues?
