Mitt Romney promised to repeal and replace President Obama’s signature health care overhaul on Thursday following the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold the law.

“What the court did not do on its last day in session I will do on my first day if elected president of the United States,” Romney said from Washington, D.C. with the Capitol building as his backdrop. “I will act to repeal Obamacare.”
