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

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."

This is exactly what we need. Someone who can turn around the US -- vs Obama, who is actively working on destroying it.

Truth?

The truth is that Romney turned the Olympics around and that is exactly what we need now — someone who can turn the country around, rather than giving Obama a second term, giving him a chance to detroy it.

Funny, you spend all your time attacking Romney and spreading lies about him, but never see you say a single negative thing about Obama.

Yeah..............things can "turn-around", sometimes with tons of gubment cash.

when will romney be giving his speech on Joe Smith?

Watch the brakes lock-up across the continent when that happens.

10 years ago, this was the same reason cited for electing him Governor of Massachusetts. “Why, he can turn the state around !” (nevermind he was proceeded by 12 years of left-wing RINO Governors just like him)

Well, he had 4 years to turn things around and guess what ? He left the state in even worse shape than he inherited it in, pushed through his WillardCare (cheap abortions, Socialist healthcare), leftist judges, gay marriage, and killed what was left of the MA GOP and handed the state off to his Democrat buddy Deval Patrick.

Now you bozos want to make this disaster President ? Looks like that’s an “epic fail.”

But giving Obama a second term is a great success, right? (/sarc)

They would love you over at DU.

Your hate for Romney seems to be greater than your love of country.

You want another 4 years of 0bama.

Look at the videos here. Romney “truth” is like the general said, a couple of more ‘victories’ like this, and we lose the war.

I love my country, so why would I want to inflict either Zero or Willard on it ? Both proven left-wing failures.

Newt’s toast. Stay home or move the ball in the right direction. It may not be a TD but its a turnover.

“I support Conservatives. That rules out Willard AND Zero.”

Obama or Romney WILL be president next year. Constantly attacking Romney only helps Obama. Simple logic.

Conclusion: you are supporting Obama.

You really shouldn’t attempt logic, Mr. Willardbot. That’s above your pay grade.

Qwitcherbitchin’ then. You’ll have another chance in 4 yrs. I’m no Romney fan. But another 4yrs of Obama will devastate this country. And we won’t be able to get it back.
