New England family?
Romney and his wife are both from Michigan. The Romney family were prominent Michigan Republicans in the 1960s and 1970s, and the family continued to be active in Michigan politics for many years.
I am not sure how many Romneys moved from MI to MA, but to my knowledge Mitt Romney is the only one who is politically significant.
We can blame Romney for lots of things, but being a blueblood New Englander isn't one of them.
Whatever. As if that makes any difference, except to a mormon cultist.
