I remember Mitt quite well from when I lived in Massachusetts. I think you overstate the case against him, but based solely on his public record, you're not all that far off, either. Romney trades in vague generalities, and avoids taking specific positions on issues because they constrain his ability to promote himself to the largest possible audience... which is another way of saying: he lacks principle.

In Mass. he governed from the Left, because that's how he won in a state where Republicans are a meager 12% of the electorate. Honestly, I don't know how he'd govern as President, but let's do America a favor and not find out....

Romney winning as Governor in Mass. was not unusual at all, he was the fourth Republican Governor in a row, the state usually elects Rep Govs.

Romney’s effect on the state was to devastate the state GOP, leave with 34% approval, and the Democrats have owned his seat ever since.
