Romney accidentally says he favors ‘health’ exception for abortion

[Playinghardball]

Romney campaign spokesperson said Monday that voters shouldn’t believe the former Massachusetts governor’s statement that he supports allowing women to obtain an abortion if their health is at risk.

“Gov. Romney’s position is clear: he opposes abortion except for cases of rape, incest and where the life of the mother is threatened,” Romney spokesperson Andrea Saul told The Washington Post‘s Greg Sargent.

While that might not be surprising to anyone who’s following abortion politics in America, it might come as a bit of a shock to anyone who watched the presumptive Republican presidential candidate’s Monday night interview with CBS News.

“My position has been clear throughout this campaign,” he said. “I’m in favor of abortion being legal in the case of rape and incest and the health and life of the mother.”
