Perry Campaign Press Release - Video: "Romney's Remedy"

AUSTIN - RickPerry.org, Inc. has released the new video, "Romney's Remedy"

"Mitt Romney clearly supports government-mandated health care since he fought for his Massachusetts mandate, which provided President Obama with the blueprint for Obamacare," said Perry spokesman Mark Miner. "Romneycare has cost $8 billion and killed 18,000 Massachusetts jobs, yet Mitt Romney wrote in his book that his plan was a model for the nation. When it comes to government-mandated health care, there is no difference between Mitt Romney and President Obama."
