"Either Mr. Romney isn't smart enough to realize that these two lines of attack are inconsistent, or he does realize they are inconsistent and is cynical enough to think that voters aren't smart enough to realize they are inconsistent. Either way, eventually it's going to catch up with him in an unpleasant way."

Pres. Bush got away with it. He demonized big government in 2000 only to go on and introduce the largest new middle class entitlement since Lyndon Johnson. As long as there's no electable alternative, Gov. Romney will also get away with it.
