Former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said Friday that he believes the Republican Party ought to get on board with raising the minimum wage.

"I part company with many of the conservatives in my party on the issue of the minimum wage. I think we ought to raise it," Romney said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe." "Because frankly our party is all about more jobs and better pay, and I think communicating that is important to us."

1. Romney was the soft option out of the field in 2008.

Still pretty terrible, but at least approaching sanity. Which is why the republicanoid base was so lukewarm on him.

I can't believe he thought of that on his own.

5. He only said it

to get attention, he doesn't really mean it. Just wait until he shows up at a debate... he'll claim it never happened, again.

Oh right, Romney takes whichever position sounds most appealing of the day.
