When an inconsistent flip-flopper calls you an inconsistent flip-flopper, you know you’ve got problems. This is Mitt Romney’s next message for the Republican voters, that Newt is like a chameleon experienced in changing his colors to match his surroundings.
Defending himself against charges that his own conservative credentials are suspect, the former Massachusetts governor turned the question in Gingrich’s direction and said that it is the former speaker who has strayed repeatedly from embracing conservative doctrine in recent years.
“He has been an extraordinarily unreliable leader in the conservative world—not 16 or 17 years ago but in the last two to three years,” Romney said. “And even during the campaign, the number of times he has moved from one spot to another has been remarkable. I think he’s shown a level of unreliability as a conservative leader today.”
And who’s better equipped to talk about being a switch hitter than Ol’ Mitt Romney. His flip-flops are well documented here, here, here, here… and we could keep going, but you get the point. So, Mitt calling Newt “extraordinarily unreliable” and moving “from one spot to another” is – to borrow a phrase from Ed Shultz – Psycho Talk!

LOL. Is that when he claimed he was a liberal also? LOL
He says his change in positions was due to the fact that he "ran against the nation’s leading liberal Ted Kennedy.” Yeah, right. http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2011/12/14/389736/romney-admits-flip-flops/
