Olympics Spotlights Mitt Romney's Turnaround Skill

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."

Yes, I do have an alternative, you just don’t like it. It’s most curious how so many so-called “Conservatives” have no problem selling out to a Socialist. Voting for Willard, btw, is not an alternative — it’s a “final solution” for the Conservative cause. He aims to deliver the death blow.

Ah, well there’s the problem then. Thanks and good night.

Hi, I notice you're robo-posting this same post in other threads. You seem to want to have it both ways, which is typical for a Willardbot. What would I have done to take on one of the most liberal legislatures in the union (which thanks to 16 years of execrable RINO leftist Governors went from a competitive state to 90% Democrat) ? I would've done what Nancy Reagan said regarding drugs... just say NO. It's amazing that in RI, which had an equally leftist legislature, Gov. Don Carcieri managed to stand up to the moonbats during his 8 years as Governor. What did Willard do ? Why he cheerfully, excitedly signed off on the biggest Socialist healthcare scheme imaginable in commonwealth history. He even had that Conservative paragon Ted Kennedy with him as he did (you remember Ted, don't you BMC ? The fella for whom Willard ran to the LEFT of ?), not to mention a soon-to-be-convicted felon House Speaker...

But, anyway, don't let all that get in the way of your "Willard is great" narrative. As for me, who is posting on the top floor of my home, I support great, successful and accomplished Conservatives like Gov. Scott Walker. I don't support and toady for Socialist scum, liars and frauds like Willard. You have a good one.

“I choose to turn the light on. Even if i’s not as bright as I’d like.”

It reminds me of a wise saying: “It is better to light a candle, than curse the darkness.”

Vote Zero - More poor years!!!

[fieldmarshaldj]

That ain't a candle you're lighting, dummy.

I live about five miles (as the Raven flies) from where that Thelma and Louise picture was taken. I believe that shot is from the third attempt. The convertible flipped over on the first, Thelma’s mannequin head fell off on the second, and with a trunk full of rocks to keep the car from flipping they got the third one right.

Why don't you just post what you are really working on:

If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, it IS a duck.

You are attacking Republicans, including First Lady Nancy Reagan and you want us to believe you are a conservative?!

[GOP Poet]

Hey fieldmarshaldj, I was starting to worry when you jumped in so late--second post--haha. One question. Does the Obama campaign send your check by mail or in some sort of localized web account?

If I don't hear back from you, I'm be sure to ask your ping group from the Obama army of FR workers. Maybe you should all organize and start a union! Ineffective. So at least you guys have accomplished as a group the one distinguishing characteristic of union workers. Oh yeah and add to that the thug mentality.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Never voting Romney.

[fieldmarshaldj]

What is it with you Willardbots, you just can’t ever tell the truth ? Attack, lie, distort, manipulate, deceive... absolutely shameless. I could never support Willard because I have something you don’t... a conscience. Same goes for Zero, too. My soul ain’t for sale to those con-men. How much did you get for yours ?

[fieldmarshaldj]

Try posting something original. Innovative already wore out all your talking points for the rest of the year.

[GOP Poet]

Well I had an authentic reaction and did see Innovative has mentioned the same. That does tell you that your behavior and status communicates the same thing to the world, "Hi my name is fieldmarshaldj and I am an Obamahalic. Try as I might I just can't stop myself for campaigning for him even though I belong to a conservative website, believe in God, am a solid sort, and call myself a conservative. "

As someone said, LOOKS LIKE A DUCK, QUACKS LIKE A DUCK . . ..

But for you benefit as I you grow on one, I will try to put a shine new red bow on the same old comment of how your behavior is received on this end to make Friday night a little more special :-).

[dixiechick2000]

“Attack, lie, distort, manipulate, deceive...”

You have become unhinged.

I didn’t answer this post to me from last night on the Nancy Reagan thread...

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2890162/posts?page=131#131

...because I had hoped you were having an “off” night.

I was wrong.

[GOP Poet]

So I'll go with this. What did the FReeper who thought Obama and Romney were the same say to the other FReeper who thought Obama and Romney were the same?

I just keep going around in circles. Yay. Hey. (snapping fingers, humming a few bars.) Yeah. Hey. I just keep going 'round in circles. (Moving with funk.)

I that original enough for you love? :-). (You do know I call you that with an affection that only one FReeper who completely disagrees with but still somehow likes and might I even say respects a bit a fellow FReeper? Even though as mentioned I do think you are totally whacked on this specific subject :).

[fieldmarshaldj]

There you go again. You Willardbots just can’t stop yourselves from mindless attacks on Conservatives.

[fieldmarshaldj]

No, sweetie, the problem is you Willardbots are completely exposed for all to see. Your Emperor has no clothes.

[GOP Poet]

There you go again calling anyone who doesn’t think Obama=Romney or Romney=Obama a “Williardbot.” Is that all you got field? I am disappointed. Talk about bring out the same ole’ same ole’.

[fieldmarshaldj]

"I just keep going around in circles."

Yes, you do. It's called "wasting JimRob's bandwith."

[fieldmarshaldj]

Try post #33. You can hitch a ride on the Willard & Zero failmobile. Next stop ? Hell.
