Yeah, maybe its a case of him 'flip flopping'.
Here is my question though. Why is that flip flopping is made out to be the weakest political trait? Obviously if you massivly change your stance toward big issues frequently then politically you seem erratic and unstable. But on the other hand isnt being open to discussion and pliancy on issues a sign of strength aswell. I mean the broad spectrum of political issues and discourse cannot be summed up into a 10 second soundbite. Or, is the public that docile that it needs purile little spoon fed chunks of information to understand things?
