I think Romney has the Left all in a tizzy because he was part of the team that turned an ugly fiasco that was the organizing committee for the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics into a major success in the end. (For those old enough to remember clearly, the 2002 Winter Olympics committee was embroiled in a major bribery scandal and was going to lose a fortune financially. Romney led a team that cleaned up that mess and the games actually made a profit financially.)

As such, Romney--based on his own personal experience running the Olympics--just clearly stated that are the British ready to carry out the Olympics in terms of facilities, transportation and security safely. Given that there are still issues with security and the threat of a transit strike that could turn the Olympics into a traffic nightmare, no wonder the British are in tizzy when told the blunt truth.

Seems like instead of wasting his walkin-on-water time here with us unappreciating peons during the primaries, Wee Willie Mitty should have been across the pond doing what he claims he does best...

“saving the Olympics”

Telling them ignorant Redcoats how its done...

Him with his gift and talent and special calling and all...
