Olympics Spotlights Mitt Romney's Turnaround Skill
Newsmax ^ | Feb 1, 2012 | Ronald Kessler

Posted on 06/01/2012 10:13:24 PM PDT by Innovative

Mitt Romney often is described as a turnaround artist. No better example of that is how he turned a failure into a success with the 2002 Winter Olympics.

Romney "can see into a situation very quickly," Bullock says. "He's very facile with numbers. He's got that raw intellect which lays a great foundation. And then he's combined that with a very significant layering upon layer of education and business experience that has given him now the base from which he can make pretty sound judgments pretty quickly."

"Mitt is a cheapskate," says Bullock, who is now managing director of Sorenson Capital, a leveraged buyout firm. "He does not tolerate one iota of waste."

Amen, brother.

Your preference history is identical to mine.

I am ABO !!!

I am also finding myself liking Romney better with each move he makes. I believe he WILL move to the right and associate himself with good conservatives.

His administration will look like a congregation of angels compared to the scum of the earth Obama has appointed.

He talks to the right people and listens to the right people.

I have high hopes for this Romney administration and can’t understand why people here would prefer Obama.

Thanks. He will be despised by the left... He knows that a turnaround will require governing as a conservative. He's not stupid... He knows that if he tries to placate the left, we'll hate him and the left will.. His approval will go the way of Bush.

I truly believe that the Mass moderate will turn conservative once elected. And I love that he's not backing down to the scumbag left's demands... I hope the next time they ask him to repudiate Trump, he asks Obama to repudate Jeremiah, Farakhan, Sharpton, Maher, the union thugs, and all the other scumbags on the left

White girls don’t jump.

I have concluded that the only possible result of a defeat of Romney is the election of Barak Obama.

Can you think of any other result? I’d be interested.

Romney is only the presumptive nominee at this moment, we actually do not know what will happen at the convention. We can guess, we can make predictions, yet we really do not know.
For me to have Romney as the candidate is a disgusting as BHO, if Romney should be nominated I will not vote for him.
I am tired of hoping these liberal candidates will move right when they are elected. I am done.
However, saying all that, it is my belief that BHO will be reelected, that the Republicans will lose House seats and pick up nothing in the Senate.
Even though Romney has done somethings well in this campaign so far, I do not see that lasting once the nomination is over, because he is a liberal and that’s also the reason he will lose.

I’m just astounded at the speed at which the democrats are invading the GOP with GOP voters cheering them on.

Okay, thanks.

I won’t be discussing stuff any more with someone living in an alternate reality.

I wouldn’t mind an alternate reality but I guess I have too much common sense.

Live long and prosper.

and

Peace be upon you.

Looks as if you’re working very hard to turn your belief into a reality.

But something tells me you’ll have a tasty serving of roast crow for breakfast on November 7th.

I am not working to reelect BHO, that argument is old and worn out, as well as stupid, being opposed to Romney does not in anyway mean I support BHO. I oppose all liberals.
I do have an advantage however, since I live in California I can vote for a banana slug if I want it wont matter, BHO will take this state by 5% easy.

A bunch of them are convincing us that staying at home is better than voting for the guy who can win.


I don’t agree. They are not going to convince very many at all.

We need to simply ignore these infiltrators.
