“He got very restless and stood up and said, ‘I am pro-choice; is there something else?’”

“‘When I am asked if am I pro-choice or pro-life, I say I refuse to accept either label.”"
— Mitt Romney, February, 1999
“‘I am pro-life.”
— Mitt Romney, July 26, 2005
“I’ve never used either title, pro-life or pro-choice, in the past.”

“Look, I was pro-choice. I am pro-life. You can go back to YouTube and look at what I said in 1994. I never said I was pro-choice, but my position was effectively pro-choice. I changed my position.”
— Mitt Romney, August 5, 2007
“I never called myself pro-choice. I never allowed myself to use the word pro-choice because I didn’t feel I was pro-choice. I would protect the law, I said, as it was, but I wasn’t pro-choice.”
— Mitt Romney, August 12, 2007
“Well, you know, I never really called myself pro-choice, but I did say when I was running for governor that I would keep the law as it was.”
