Romney has now inextricably tied himself to the Ryan voucher plan for Medicare that would privatize the program and then slowly phase it out.
"Well, the items that we agree on, I think, outweigh any differences there may be. We haven't gone through piece by piece and said, 'Oh, here's a place where there's a difference,' " Romney said. "I can't imagine any two people even in the same party who have exactly the same positions on all issues."
He added, "My plan for Medicare is very similar to his plan for Medicare."
This means that
Romney's spokesperson (h/t The Troubadour) says the plans are the same (as Mitt himself says) while
John Sununu says it's 'very different.'. But now we have it from Mitt's own gaffe-prone mouth.
