Is Hillary Clinton the Democrat version of Mitt Romney?
Just like Romney, Hillary is a Washington establishment hack, a career crony politician who flip flops and changes her views as long as she knows she will get more support by changing. Both of them have no true political platform. He seems to say whatever he thinks will get him elected.
She has radically changed her positions on same-sex marriage, guns, immigration, the bailouts, health care, Iraq, taxes etc. etc. Consequently, I have no idea what she believes or if he believes anything. Like Romney, she just seems like a robot who will say anything in order to get elected. In 2008 she ran to the right of Obama, and now in 2015 she's running to the left of Bernie Sanders. She can't even explain what she supported back in the 1990s as first lady or when she was in the Senate because if she did she would lose much of the Democratic base in the primaries.

Look at their records. Romney did some good for the less fortunate and disenfranchised through his Morman church but far far less than Hillary has done her entire career. He was the "fortunate son" of a wealthy man who made even more money as a hedge fund manager.
Couldn't be further from Hillary in his background and his priorities. Laughable to say they're remotely similar!! : D

Romney was NOT a Washington hack. In fact, he spent very little time in Washington. Nor was he a career politician. He had been governor, but spent most of his life as a successful and well accomplished business man. Romney had a track record, experience and a record of serious accomplishment both publically and privately. As to Romney saying anything to get elected, I didn't see that. Perhaps you weren't really listening.
So, no. I don't see any comparison.

WORSE! Clinton is the Democrat Party "Golden Girl"; has been for thirty years. She became
involved in Party politics while attending Yale Law and was rewarded with a position at an
influential Washington DC law firm. When she failed to pass the DC Bar Exam she left and
moved to Arkansas to marry Bill Clinton (whom she had rejected twice). The Arkansas Democrat
Party groomed him to be Governor; he held one term and was voted down. The Democrats made
"adjustments" in his political positions and he was reelected (split terms).
Following the example of Jimmy Carter the Party ran him for President and won. AFTER
President Clinton Where did they go? Harlem, Manhattan, New York -- Their usefulness as
"common Americans from Arkansas" was over. The Party ran HER for Senator after they met
"resident" requirements.
Halfway through her second term the Party picked her as their "Golden Girl" candidate for
President. Barack Obama made a stronger candidate so she was offered Secretary of State
to drop out.
SHE'S A DEMOCRAT PUPPET with no independent thought or personal integrity.

Nah...Clinton did not sell our jobs overseas while gleefully stuffing her own pockets full of money like Mitt Romney did.

Romney never held a job in Washington. He was Governor of Massachusetts and a corporate CEO.

2008:
- against same-sex marriage
- defended her vote for the Iraq War
- opposed to states issuing driver's licenses for illegal immigrants
- supported the second amendment
Now:
- for same-sex marriage
- regrets the Iraq War vote
- advocate for illegal immigrations
- wants stricter gun control
On top of all that, she has recently come out against the very Trans-Pacific Partnership deal that she helped pass, and come out against the Keystone pipeline which she waited forever to do.
