Romney ISN’T a Southern nor will he be one, ever. Even those who have been adopted as southerners at least like the culture when they live down there, and aclimate to the area. I donn’t see Romney doing that.

He’s just a panderer.

When my job moved from northern Illinois to Charlotte, NC, one of the reasons I declined to move with it was because I didn't think that this CT born and raised Yankee would be able to truly assimilate to the southern mode. I am a Yankee; I didn't want to become a damn Yankee.

That said, even though I am not a southerner, and don't believe I could or even want to become one in my soul, I respect the essence of southern culture. There's a lot of things that the south got right that the north has gotten very wrong. I also regret that the states as a whole did not recognize the right to secession. A mechanism should have been formalized in the Constitution, a great document, but not a perfect one.

Mitt Romney has assimilated the worst of Yankee ways all too well.
