Oh, so now nuance is a bad thing?
The Boston Globe, and other leftist mouthpieces (subscription req'd), are all aghast that Mitt Romney has "flip-flopped" (their words) on social issues like homosexual "marriage" civil unions, and abortion.
So, the same people who had no problems with a failed-Democrat Presidential nominee supporting, not less than 5 distinct positions on the War in Iraq, and for whom a Google Search of "Kerry" and "flip-flop" reveals an excess of 321,000 hits, have a problem with the Republican Governor of the Bluest of the Blue states in the Union, nuancing the way he states long-held positions in these issues when he's in front of a more, shall I say, Red crowd.
OK, so long as I have this straight.
