bin Laden is dead.
GM is alive.

Romney was on the wrong side on both issues.

Romney has been elected to office ONCE, when he became Gov. of Massachusetts.  He decided not to
run for re-election because his state was 47th WORST in the nation for job creation.  He has
destroyed people’s companies, jobs, pensions, hopes and dreams to enrich himself and his cronies.

Winning the popularity contests and beauty pagaents of the primary/caucus are not elections that
he “won”, those are merely part of a process to determine the eventual nominee.

Romney is such an out-of-touch rich putz, he can’t properly identify a chocolate frosted raised
donut.  The vid is on Youtube, with his press entourage in attendance.

I hear a lot of Repubs whining about Obama using the “blame game”, but have never heard it
come from Obama.  Our President doesn’t have to lay out the blame.  We all know what a
mess he had dumped on him and how hard the Repubs have worked to make a bad situation
even worse.

Mitt-A-Sketch and his company, Bain, shipping US jobs to China as his campaign tries to deny
that Bain ships US jobs overseas.

The Sensata Technologies plant, which has been on the forefront of producing state-of-the-art
automotive sensors, was owned by Texas Instruments, and then by Honeywell, before being sold in
2010 to Sensata Technologies Holding, N.V, a firm based in the Netherlands but majority-owned by
Bain Capital. Bain, the private equity firm that Mitt Romney helped to develop and that
continues to make him a very rich man, has since consolidated ownership of Sensata.

The workers at the plant wanted Romney to make a slight detour on his bus trip and take a look
at the devastation being caused by Bain’s machinations at a plant where many of them have worked
for more than thirty years.

The plant’s operations are rapidly skrinking as Sensata moves to outsource work from Illinois to
China.

“This used to be a very high-volume plant and now it’s pretty much a ghost town…and by the end
of the year it will be a ghost town”, Sensata employee Cheryl Randecker told local reporters.

The rich get richer and the middle class continues to disappear.  Maybe the Mittster can buy
another dancing horse to write off, to the tune of $77,000, as a business loss.

It is interesting that back in the 80’s, parasites like Romney and his colleauges at Bain capital
would have been called “corporate raiders.” Many good companies, many in the wood products
business, went belly-up as a result of these parasites. Now they have changed their nake to a
more politically correct, “venture capitalists”. The result is the same. They come in and take
over a company, steal all the cash in hand to pay off their takeover debt and liquidate the
companies at a huge profit.
