While pushing a law to force women to undergo an ultrasound before receiving an abortion, Pennsylvania's Republican Gov. Corbett dismissed the outcry from women, saying they could just "close their eyes" during the invasive procedure. Yesterday, Corbett became Mitt Romney's latest endorser.

And Romney says he's "extraordinarily proud."

Women aren't closing their eyes to Romney and the Republicans' extraordinarily extreme agenda for women's health—nor will they close their eyes to the message that comes with Corbett's endorsement.

Romney and his Republican ally are simply too extreme for women—and the polls show it.

If you doubted Mitt Romney lacks a core and that his only real interest in politics is his ambition for higher office, just read this lead from the Washington Post. Before he was even elected governor, Romney was already plotting a run for national office—and promising the pro-choice activists whose votes he was seeking that he would stand with them in Washington.

Fast forward nine years. Today, as he seeks the votes of the most hard-right Republican primary electorate in modern history, Romney supports overturning Roe v. Wade.

"Mitt Romney was firm and direct with the abortion rights advocates sitting in his office nine years ago, assuring the group that if elected Massachusetts governor, he would protect the state’s abortion laws.

"Then, as the meeting drew to a close, the businessman offered an intriguing suggestion—that he would rise to national prominence in the Republican Party as a victor in a liberal state and could use his influence to soften the GOP’s hard-line opposition to abortion.

"He would be a 'good voice in the party' for their cause, and his moderation on the issue would be 'widely written about,' he said, according to detailed notes taken by an officer of the group, NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts.

“'You need someone like me in Washington,' several participants recalled Romney saying that day in September 2002, an apparent reference to his future ambitions.

"Romney made similar assurances to activists for gay rights and the environment, according to people familiar with the discussions, both as a candidate for governor and then in the early days of his term.

"The encounters with liberal advocates offer some revealing insights into the ever-evolving ideology of Romney, who as a presidential candidate now espouses the hard-line opposition to abortion that he seemed to disparage less than a decade ago."
