I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone attack a politician for the failures of his peers to be elected. Romney invested quite a bit of his own money in helping Republicans become elected. That it didn’t transpire in Massachusetts—well, I think your logic is looking like a few logs tossed in the ocean for a few months...
It is the singular responsibility of the sitting Governor for the failures or successes of his party. To claim otherwise is just being ignorant. Nobody can defend with any intellectual honesty that Romney had a successful record in that department. He was a colossal and miserable failure. And we don't reward failures with the Presidency.
"Romney invested quite a bit of his own money in helping Republicans become elected."
His "investments" stopped after 2004. He told the GOP to kiss off afterwards and left everyone in the lurch. People begging for his help. Sorry, but Precious can go and take a long walk off a short ocean pier.

Nothing to deny. It's what he did. This man did more to make the Democrats an unassailable and uncontested political regime in MA better than any Democrat Governor could have. It will take decades, if ever, to undo the damage between his hero Weld through Precious, and make the state even remotely competitive again.
