"TOO MANY MITTS" Salt Lake City Tribune's official statement
Posted: Oct 22, 2012
" Romney has raised the most frequently asked question of the campaign: "Who is this guy, really, and what in the world does he truly believe?" The evidence suggests no clear answer, or at least one that would survive Romney’s next speech or sound bite. "

Excellent article!! - me
[ In Reply To ..]Thanks for sharing!
I was trying to imagine all that lead up to such a stern - denouncement. Being a fly on those ceilings
[ In Reply To ..]would have been very interesting.
The endorsement of President Obama was heartwarming. Few outside the campaign have been talking about what he's done well.
Thanks for posting a link! - Cassie (s/m)
[ In Reply To ..]In addition to the SLC Trib's endorsement of Obama, it seems somewhat telling, too, that both Michigan (Romney's home state) and Massachusetts (the state he actually governed) are both likely to go for Obama. You might think those are the two states where people know him best! Hmmmmm......
There was a good article in Newsweek - RC
[ In Reply To ..]about Mitt Romney and Bain Capital.
It pointed out that to those who would vote for him because he's a "businessman," he is not a businessman at all, but a man who buys businesses and disassembles them.
Not to mention, you can't run a government like a business.(nm) - anon

If one did -
[ In Reply To ..]we would be out of business right now with all the overspending and debt. Maybe we should try running it like a business, if not for profit, then at least break even. That would be pleasant change.
If you're expecting Romney to run it like a business - RC
[ In Reply To ..]Be prepared to be bought, fired, and train your overseas replacement.
Seriously, running government like a business would be - like running Walmart like a lemonade stand.
[ In Reply To ..]Only WAY more different, because their goals, assets, and liabilities are all completely different. We're not in this just to make money for somebody, after all.
At its very best that's crass Mickey Mouse stuff compared to making a nation its people can be proud of.

Salt Lake City Tribune: Obama�s Foreign Policy Record Is Perhaps His Strongest Suit, EspeciaOct 22, 2012
Excerpt from the SLC Tribune's endorsement of President Obama for reelection: "Obama’s foreign policy record is perhaps his strongest suit, especially compared to Romney’s bellicose posture toward Russia and China and his inflammatory rhetoric regarding Iran’s nuclear weapons program.

Mitts Behind Closed Doors Hot Mic Moment: Slash DOEducation, Eliminate HUDApr 16, 2012
As if standing idly by while the housing market crashes isn't enough, Romney tells big-buck donors if he had his way, he would eliminate HUD (Romney Sr was Secretary of HUD) all together, another apparent reversal of his previous multi-family/anti-sprawl policies while serving as governor of Massachusetts. Out of sight, out of mind. Maybe he could fund bare-bones cuts to the Department of Education by moving all recipients of students loans to labor camps after graduation.& ...
