Romney has a technocratic background, which in principle might serve him well as President. In practice, being President isn't really a technical occupation these days. Given the toxic dogmatism of the current Republican party, I'm not sure if he's equipped to push back. He certainly hasn't shown any inclination to push back on the toxicity front so far, having adopted the "you have to be conservative to serve America" line and similar Republican "we are the only true Americans" claptrap.
