'08 "Conservative" Candidate Romney Does Damage Control After 1994 Pro-Choice Video: "I Was Wrong On Some Issues Back Then"...


A 1994 videotape mysteriously posted on YouTube.com prompted Republican Mitt Romney to declare Wednesday, "I was wrong on some issues back then," while also insisting to social conservatives key to his presidential campaign that he is one of them.

The tape of a Senate debate between Romney and Sen. Edward M. Kennedy showed Romney defending a woman's right to abortion, saying he supported allowing gays in the Boy Scouts and distancing himself from former President Reagan by noting he was a registered independent during the period the conservative icon was leading the nation.
