I thought Romney's main concern is that he believes States, not Washington, should drive policy on the uninsured; that he proposes to guarantee that people who are "continuously covered" for a certain period be protected against losing insurance if they get sick, leave their job and need another policy; and would expand individual tax-advantaged medical savings accounts and let savings be used for insurance premiums as well as personal medical costs. Please correct me if I've got these muddled.
So how does the national bill he wants to repeal differ from the state bill he was pushing MA? (I take it he didn't get that passed?) Just key differences .. Also the proposals he is suggesting .. were these in his MA bill or are they new ones?

The MA bill did in fact get passed and his now law in the state. The entire health care system and the bill are complicated and can't be explained in a simple web post. As you said it is around 1400 pages.
