Romney spokesman: That steelworker's wife would have had coverage under RomneyCare

“I think that President Obama’s attacks have been so low and so despicable on a personal level that they’re backfiring on him,” said Saul.

Earlier, Saul said that Spotic and his deceased wife, who passed away from cancer in 2006, would have had access to health care coverage under Mitt Romney’s controversial universal health care coverage plan he passed as the governor of the Bay State.

“If people had been in Massachusetts, under Governor Romney’s health care plan, they would have had health care,” said Saul.

Saul’s invocation of Romney’s health care plan in Massachusetts sounds an atonal note considering how much time the former governor’s campaign has spent attempting to distance himself from his expansion of health care coverage for residents of the Bay State.
