Romney is a successful businessman, who also successfully led the Winter Olympics.
Say what you want about his political opinions, but you are just wrong to believe he is incapable of speaking to the economy.
Now, if you read his 10-point plan, and have a comment about it, go right ahead.
Well he did keep his buddies out of jail after they bribed the IOC!
Led the Olympics? You mean he sucked off American taxpayers teat (the ROMNEY WAY)
and tried to take credit for himself (preObama, is he not?)
And let us be historically correct.
ROMNEY TANKED MASSACHUSETTS compared to others states:
Mitt Romney got a "C" rating from CATO.
And that was BEFORE Romney's failure re: Socialized medicine.
"As U.S. real output grew 13 percent between 2002 and 2006, Massachusetts trailed at 9 percent.
* Manufacturing employment fell 7 percent nationwide those years, but sank 14 percent under Romney, placing Massachusetts 48th among the states.
* Between fall 2003 and autumn 2006, U.S. job growth averaged 5.4 percent, nearly three times Massachusetts' anemic 1.9 percent pace."
He probably is capable, but his capabilities are negated by his actions, whatever the motives. Being unwilling to admit his past mistakes with RomneyCare and outsourcing puts him in the "NO" category for me.
His penchant for outsourcing jobs does create jobs in other countries and puts more money in the pockets of a few fat cats, but in the long term it causes the kind of jobless depression the USA is currently experiencing. We don't need any more of that.
Romney has had plenty of opportunity to explain his RomneyCare fiasco; he could have said, "... it looked good on paper, but in practice it was a disaster for the MA economy and the health of the citizens." He refuses to tell the truth about those mistakes, or anything else.
He's kaput.
