Hang on now.
The same could be said about anybody who has lived in different places. I grew up in Fla. and went to college there. Left in 1988 and moved to Atlanta. Left there in 1992 and lived in South Carolina. Left there in 2008 and moved to Las Vegas.
I claim Florida, Georgia, SC, and Nevada as my "home"
As for politicians...they ALL live in Washington D.C.
They keep fake "residences" in their home states. And the ones who have been in office all their lives have never lived in their "home" state.
And look at Obama. He was Hawaiian. Then he went to college in New York. Then he began his political career in Chicago.
I'd say that Romney and Obama are similar in that respect. Obama's about 15 years younger and had a lot less political experience when he took office as President so he doesn't have quite as much background to make the comparison.
