Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney tells NewsmaxTV that the Supreme Court ruling has given Americans clarity in his race against Obama and will give voters more reason to embrace him.

While expressing dismay at the court’s ruling, he argues the American people have consistently rejected the Obamacare plan and predicts they will do so again in November.

In an exclusive sit down with Newsmax today, the former Massachusetts Governor said, “The Obamacare ruling makes the urgency of replacing president Obama even more clear in the minds of American voters.”

Obamacare is not good law, it’s not good policy. The American people didn’t want it in 2010. That’s one of the reasons we picked up so many seats in the House and Senate, and I think in the election this November people who know they don’t want Obamacare will have to vote out President Obama, and that’s a plus for me.

The high court’s decision gives Americans a “very clear reason for people to go to the polls,” said Romney.

Americans “don’t want to see $500 billion in new taxes,” the presidential candidate said. “They don’t want to see a $500 billion cut to Medicare. They don’t want to see what the CBO [Congressional Budget Office] said.”

“Because of the [Obama] healthcare law, up to 20 million people could lose the health insurance they currently have because they are dropped by their employer’s insurance plan,” Romney noted.

Americans “don’t want to see greater deficits passed on to our kids,” Romney said. “These things are all part of the Obamacare story, and I think that’s one of the reasons we’ll get more energy and passion in this election, more urgency in this election to replace the president than might have occurred had the bill been struck down.”

When he met with Newsmax, Romney was in New York for campaign appearances and a high dollar fundraiser Thursday night that featured billionaire Donald Trump.

Newsmax asked Romney a series of questions that will be featured in its September Newsmax Magazine cover story, including his take on the key media outlets he turns to for news.

“You know, increasingly, I’m getting news from electronic sources, whether Newsmax, Drudge, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal Online, even USA Today online, Fox online, CNN online,” Romney said.

He added that while he receives “a lot of information online, nonetheless I still appreciate the feel of paper in my hands.”

“I’m old-fashioned enough to still want to look at a magazine, like Newsmax,” he continued.

He didn’t have high praise for the nation’s two leading newsweeklies, however.

“I’m afraid Newsweek and Time have fallen off my shelf, they’re not what they used to be in terms of my interest, but I still read The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times in paper version if it’s available,” he said.

    and you honestly agree with what mitt romney says? he passed the law in Massachussetts. Romneycare is very similar to Obamacare.

    I think the obviously wrong decision by the court will ultimately result in a daily double win for the Republicans. Romney defeats our resident impostor and the Republicans take the Senate. 2012 will = Bye Bye Barry, Bye Bye Barry Care.

    Right as far as he goes. We no longer have a Supreme Court, much less a judiciary, willing to rein in the government's excesses. The government can decide to try all persons having more than a certain net worth in the legislature, and punish them with wholesale confiscation. That is a bill of attainder, only now, thanks to John Roberts, that can be merely a tax.

    Let that continue, and men of means will go on strike!

    The Independents do. And this is WHY Obie will LOSE BIG.

    How can an intelligent person (me) explain to an idiot (you) that what works in one state might not work in another state.One size will not fit all.Did you ever stop to think that maybe the reason Romney knows it won't work is because he has already tried it.

    It appears you got the idiot and intelligent person confused. So there really isn't anyway someone of your mentality can explain anything to me. I can appreciate your effort though but really be careful trying to form complete sentences you may hurt yourself.

    If you really knew what you were saying you would know that the ruling gives each state the right to adopt the plan or not.

    So maybe you and chi-cat should read the ruling before you stick your foot in your mouth. No state has to except Obamacare which is the same as Romneycare but if they do the Supreme Court also ruled that it is illegal or unconstitutional to penalize someone or to force someone to buy something they don't want. Therefore if a state chooses to adopt Obamacare the penalty for not having insurance will actually be a tax.

    If the worthless president and the US Congress think that the 2010 midterms were bad for them, wait until November 2012.

    And btw, how come news articles never mention Obama meeting with and getting donations from HIS high-dollar billionaire friends on a continuing basis? Only Republicans?

    Media bias. What else is new?

    Me thinks the election will not be held. Something (s-o-m-e-t-h-i-n-g) is in the works. BHO appears way too confident at this point in time when he has to know that he faces certain defeat. Maybe he is just surrounded by too many yes men and women (btw all scum IMHO).

    Oh, we know it out here! The shootings are crazy and the pollies say nada. They just ordered hundreds of more cameras (supposedly red light cameras...BS) already to the thousands that we have here, they don't say anything about the crime. When OBLUNDER was here a couple of weeks ago for a wedding and there were 43 shootings, 7 murders and one cop shot in both legs. Nothing said - not one word. Then during NATO - that was the worst weekend 58+ shootings, 9 deaths, 45 injuries and THE MEDIA SUPPRESSED that statistic (normal Monday am reporting) for NINE DAYS. I'm outta here. I can tell you that much. Hell is knowing 'your' intuition and I will crawl on my knuckles if I have to. Perfect set-up for ML.

    Oh, how have you been doing, Sir? Good to hear from you.
