...except that GM and Chrysler *were* pushed into a managed bankruptcy. Neither would have turned around as fast as they have if they just got the loan money without all the clean-washing benefits of the bankruptcy action.
Now if he's trying to say Obama was his puppet then Obama should just throw all of Romney's economic attacks back in his face.
Yes they were pushed into bankrupcy however, the billions in loans helped in part, to pay off some of their debts, thereby keeping some of the businesses, and suppliers that are support services from also running into problems.

Romney was pushing for a managed bankruptcy with private support, without intervention from the federal government. Problem was, the entire economy was teetering on the brink of collapse, and there was no private money. Obama and Bush (yes, Bush) handled the auto industry just right, and they deserve credit. Romney deserves none.
This is poor politics. No one beyond Fox 'News' is going to give him a pass on this one. It will play terribly with independents, and in some important states like Ohio.

I heard another take on this from a friend last night. He said Romney voters should be concerned. Anyone with memory problems like this should not be running for the highest office. He actually thinks Romney is delusional and suffers from some mental illness. I think the Democrats should bring this up. Mitt can't remember an editorial he wrote just a few years ago where his position was just the opposite? I know I was only kidding, but how long before Mitt Romney starts taking credit for killing Bin Laden himself? All of Obama's accomplishments are suddenly Mitt Romney's accomplishments. The man is either a terrible liar, a shameless flip flopper who will do and say ANYTHING to get elected or he is mentally unstable and forgets easily.

I don't believe Romney will win but the vast majority of Americans don't pay close attention to politics. When he twists the truth a little they won't know the difference unless they really look into it. Beyond the auto states and industry employees most of the nation showed they hate the US automakers and still rail against government involvement.
I found a web site where you can design your own flip flops and I was trying to put Mitt's picture on them, but the site doesn't seem to be working for me.

I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

According to Mitt if you give detailed facts about things he has done it is considered character assassination. He's running for the highest office yet has a tantrum when you bring up things he can't lie his way out of.Their hypocrisy is just pathetic!

My mom told me to get my head out of my ass because I don't support Mittens. I told her that I'll get my head out of my ass when Romney gets his head out of my vagina.

Newt Gingrich has been exposing Mitt Romney's flip flops and LIES. IMO, Obama should help Gingrich pay off his HUGE debt for helping out team Obama by exposing what a failure and liar Willard is.

So sad watching Republicans back and defend a loser they all hate. At least Democrats LOVE and admire Obama. Mitt is hated by the GOP so their fake support just shows how much they HATE Obama (gee I wonder why?)
Willard must be desperate. He is now taking advice from Sarah the Quitter from Alaska

Well, this is not really a lie, or a flip flop, but DAMN, this guy is stupid!
"What could have been a game changing moment in Mitt Romneys campaign turned into a horrendous gaffe Tuesday afternoon when the former governor was having lunch with a few of his supporters. Romney was hoping to show America how well he relates to the average working American by having a press recorded lunch at a local pancake house in rural Kentucky where the primary elections were taking place. However, what turned from a nice preplanned lunch with common-folk conversation ended up getting off track when one of Romneys supporters asked him how he was so certain he would win. Romney turned to the man seated on his left and seemingly forgetting the ten plus reporters in the room said, Well between you and me, we have to think about the reality of the situation. Obama is a popular guy and his supporters are hell-bent in getting him reelected. There is one thing that his campaign seems to keep forgetting over and over, and that is how many Americans cant stand the guy for an obvious reason. Of course Ill win, Im the white guy. Linkon Park

Diva, while that sentiment may permeate every element of the Romney strategy, this particular occurrence doesn't seem legit. Pretty sure that's coming from a knockoff Onion source.
If proven wrong, however, I wouldn't be surprised...

Yea, I've used the site before so I don't know how I didn't see it this time.
Probably too busy with the countless posts from some other troll idiot.
