"    Charlie has written, of course, of the many inconsistencies of one Willard Mitt Romney in this space many times. But for the October issue of Esquire (which is on sale any day now, by the way) we asked him to write about the greatest thing Romney has done in his life \u2014 namely, the institution of a universal-health-care-plan in Charlie&amp;#039;s home state of Massachusetts \u2014 and how it&amp;#039;s affected his own. The result is &amp;quot;Life Under Romneycare,&amp;quot; a pretty honest, pretty fair appraisal of the source code for &amp;quot;Obamacare,&amp;quot; of the law that dare not speak its name. So, as Charlie takes a little break from all-day blogging on his way back from the conventions (road trip!), take the long read below, and try to answer this question in the comments below that, as posed by Governor Deval Patrick in Charlie&amp;#039;s reporting on Romney&amp;#039;s great gift to Massachusetts: &amp;quot;He was proud of it at the time. Why wouldn&amp;#039;t he be proud of it now?&amp;quot;  Follow The Politics Blog on RSS and on the Twitter &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
