bigelow v. virginia
anderson endorsed romney's subsequent 2002 gubernatorial bid in massachusetts. romney later endorsed anderson's 2003 mayoral re-election campaign. anderson has criticized romney's changes in position on certain issues since he decided to run for president of the u.s. "the mitt romney who ran for and served as governor of massachusetts was a very different mitt romney than has been running for president of the united states ... the real mitt romney — the mitt romney we all knew and [who] served as governor of massachusetts — was very reasonable, very moderate — he felt that roe versus wade should be the end of the debate on choice; supporter of stem cell research — he was not the right-winger that he seemed to be when he decided he would run for president of the united states."
