I read the article. What I noticed was that in all three cases Romney would revoke and repeal the regulations as passed and instead pass something else. In all three cases the “something else” was vague and undefined. Or as the article said it, “replac[e] it with a mostly unspecified but “streamlined regulatory framework.”

So my distorted view is that Mitt has no plan, just vaporware. How is this wrong?

Like most modern presidential campaigns, Mitt’s polices are vague and amount to a few paragraphs of very general stuff. Even Obama’s healthcare reform plans were very vague for his campaign. A good political wonk can read between the lines, look at previous proposals from think tanks, and possible cabinet appointees but that’s all guess work.
