Romney Offers Nothing for Uninsured

Jay Leno pushed Mitt Romney last night “to explain what he would offer Americans with pre-existing medical conditions so that they might retain their coverage, perhaps the most popular provision of the president’s health care law,” NBC News reports.
 
Romney: “People with pre-existing conditions, as long as they have been insured before, they are going to be able to continue to have insurance.”
 
Leno: “Suppose they haven’t been insured.”
 
Romney: “If they are 45 years old and they show up and say I want insurance because I have heart disease, it’s like, ‘Hey guys. We can’t play the game like that. You’ve got to get insurance when you are well and then if you get ill, you are going to be covered.'”
