Romney got a "C" rating from CATO.

Since when do conservatives regard CATO to be the arbiter of all truth?

Perhaps you are right.

Romney deserved an "F" for what he did to Massachusetts.

?Since when do conservatives regard CATO to be the arbiter of all truth?

CATO at least is solid libertarian on economic issues. Therefore, they are going to get behind hands-off govt execs & legislators and their going to slap the hands of tax-and-spend types.

(You don't have to know "all truth" to recognize a tax-and-spend governor, do you?)
