President Barack Obama has diagnosed a new condition, ‘Romnesia’ in a barb at his Republican challenger Mitt Romney’s “slippery” change of positions on key issues while forgetting the hard right positions he took earlier in order to appear more moderate to uncommitted voters.

His opponent was suffering from ‘Romnesia’, Obama said at a rally in Fairfax, a Northern Virginia suburb just outside Washington, going by the changes in his stand on issues like contraception, coal, equal pay, and taxes. “He told folks he was the ideal candidate for the Tea Party,” Obama said of Romney’s stance during the primary season. “Now suddenly he is saying, ‘What, who me?’ He is forgetting what his own positions are and he is betting that you are too. I mean he is changing up so much, back-tracking and sidestepping.”
