>> i, mitt romney -- he soon becomes known in boston media as governor no, relying mostly on the veto, using it more than 800 times in four years with almost all of them overridden by the huge democratic majority in the state legislature. meanwhile some state legislators sense that his heart and head may be elsewhere. >> there is not the slightest evidence that he ever intended to run for a second term. it seemed from very early on in his tenure that the governor's office was just a way station on the way to a presidential campaign. >> early in his term, romney begins a rightward move on social issues opposing abortion rights and gay marriage. on november 18th, 2003, the massachusetts supreme court legalizes same-sex marriage, the first state to do so. romney opts to crusade against the change even testifying before the u.s. senate.
