Yet more evidence that Romney's position on abortion depends on what audience he's trying to get to vote for him.
ABC News is reporting tonight that Ann Romney, wife of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, contributed $150 to Planned Parenthood in 1994.
That was the year Mitt Romney was running against Sen. Edward Kennedy in Massachusetts. Eleven years later, when he was governor and studying cloning legislation, Romney has said he changed his mind and turned against abortion rights. He is speaking to a Massachusetts group that opposes abortion on Thursday.
Campaign spokesman Kevin Madden said Ann Romney had no recollection of the circumstances under which she donated the money.
Madden said he did not know whether the former governor was aware of the donation, but he noted that Romney had been publicly committed to upholding a woman's right to an abortion until late 2004.
"This is an issue that the governor has changed his position on, that the governor was wrong on in the past and believes he is right on now," he said.
The article also notes that Rudy Giuliani has also donated to Planned Parenthood, but at least his position on abortion has been consistently pro-choice.
