“I remember back in the ‘70s when Romney was declared mentally unfit/damaged for office because he shed some tears.”

It was not Romney, it was Edmund Muskie. And he did not just “shed some tears”. He broke down and stated weeping uncontrollably at a public event because he was criticized in a newspaper article.
