In an apparent shift from his previously stated position, Mitt Romney said that he supports an abortion exception when the “health” of the mother is at risk. His spokeswoman took it back:
But there is no shift, Romney spokesperson Andrea Saul tells me. She emails:
“Gov. Romney’s position is clear: he opposes abortion except for cases of rape, incest and where the life of the mother is threatened.”
That means no health exception.
So, who is in change of Romney’s campaign? Is he allowed to hold his own positions, or not?
