Ann Romney, the wife of GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney, repeatedly declined to answer questions about gay marriage or employer-provided contraception in an interview with Davenport, Iowa, television station KWQC conducted Friday.
The interview was scheduled to air Friday night on KWQC-TV, an NBC affiliate, but a transcript of the segment was posted on the station's website Friday afternoon.Romney was talking about her message to women voters, who largely support the president, polls show."Here in Iowa, as you know, same-sex marriage is legal. Do you believe a lesbian mother should be allowed to marry her partner?" David Nelson, a KWQC anchor asked."You know, I'm not going to talk about the specific issues," Romney responded, adding that "hot-button issues" distract from the economy.Nelson then asked whether employers should be required to provide health insurance that covers birth control. The Romney campaign has attacked the Obama administration for adopting a rule requiring most religiously affiliated employers to provide coverage for contraception in their health plans.She declined to answer. "Again, you're asking me questions that are not about what this election is going to be about. This election is going to be about the economy and jobs."
good if she wants to help him and the party steal the election put her in the frying pan and watch the grease pop. ever notice how the republicans dodge and try to change the question to avoid an unfavorable or unknown what to say answer? Palin "that's not what i'm here to talk about", if you are up for Pres. or Mrs. Pres. you can't dictate what you will and won't do in terms of disclosure. Annie didn't get the e-mail

i believer her to be just as big a liar and flip flopper as he is, with visions of WH drapery colors already in her mind.
