Romney isn't sure Global Warming is real

As he introduced a new state policy to combat global warming, Governor Mitt Romney had a surprise for the environmentalists gathered along the Charles River Esplanade yesterday: Personally, he's not sure global warming is happening.

During a news conference at which he formally announced the Massachusetts Climate Protection Plan, Romney said he decided not to take sides in the debate about "is there global warming or is there not, and what's causing it."

His hedging on the issue surprised some activists, who had praised the state plan for accepting greenhouse gases as a significant cause of global warming, a connection that the White House and Republicans nationally have sometimes tried to downplay.

1. I'm not sure Romney is real
I'm hoping he's a figment of my imagination too, but I don't think it's going to work out in my favor.

4. Perhaps he has national ambitions, and he's getting with the program
of the (national) repug party. You know how they are: everyone must think and march in lockstep to succeed in the party nationally. And as we've heard a number of times, from bush et al, they don't believe in global warming.
