Point .08 and a Donkey in his post last thursday raises the interesting possibility that Mitt Romney might duck the pending "morning after pill" legislation by leaving the state at a judicious moment and allowing Kerry Healey to sign it into law as Acting Governor.
Healey of course has already signaled her own support for said bill so its once of those plausible-on-paper type things.
Of course, I doubt Kerry Healey is allowed to go to the ladies room without a signed permission slip from the Governor but be that as it may.
Well, its an intriguing scenario and even funny when you consider the image of the famously conservative Mitt sneaking off to Utah or New Hampshire to avoid signing or not signing a bill he opposes but i doubt this will happen.
Even a dilettante like Romney has to realize what an indecisive spectacle he'd be making of himself under those circumstances...the wowsers and his constituents would both have to see him as more than slightly hapless.
Still and all that, a moment of truth is arriving for Romney, he has few options left to play in this state regardless of his Potomac Fever.
