![]() Mitt Romney has repeatedly stated he left Bain Capital in 1999, to supervise the Olympics. This leaving date unassociates Romney with multiple incidences of mass layoffs, firings, and outsourcing of American jobs to China that Bain Capital participated in after 1999, which are political liability in a presidential campaign.
However, in this past week, Romney's claims about the date he left Bain have been disproven. The importance of this is that it leaves Romney only two choices to describe himself: First, admitting he made repeated overt political lies simply to make himself look good. This would require simply an embarrassing public walkback, but leaves him open to attacks that destroy his Bain cred in the campaign. Secondly, he didn't lie about the 1999 date, but instead Romney lied to the SEC, which would be a federal felony. The exclusive original stories that have broken this news: David Corn at Mother Jones, Talking Point Memo, and then the Boston Globe. The timeline: First story: July 2 and 3, David Corn, Mother Jones: http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2012...documents-show http://www.motherjones.com/politics/...ain-stericycle Talking Points Memo then also verified the story July 10: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/archive...in_in_1999.php The Boston Globe then took the work of the reporters in the above two stories, and published a story that finally got MSM attention: http://bostonglobe.com/news/politics...sUTI/story.htm Comment: It is believed that the Romney camp deliberately used various controversies over the NAACP speech, and his fundraiser talk yesterday, to try and distract the media and public from the breaking Bain stories that show Romney lied. The stories are a BFD to his continued successful campaign.
