From the chart, I see he created jobs when unemployment was 6%.

How many jobs was he supposed to create once unemployment reached 4.5%?

You should call this things liberals would like Romney to not mention.
Or file it under: Things Republicans have warned Romney to gather credible facts about and present.

Actually thats not even close to true, unless you can come to the ridiculous conclusion that no one that left took jobs with them.

Since when did Sarah Palin, speak for all Republicans, and furthermore, the discussion you responded to, had to deal with when he was Governor, not at Bain

Massachusetts had a net job growth of 1.4 percent under Romney. However, that was far slower growth than the national average of 5.3 percent.

In 1990, the Sports Authority was acquired by Kmart Corporation. Following public offerings in November 1994 and October 1995, Kmart no longer owned any interest in the Company.

Kmart is however responsible for creating thousands of jobs at the Sports Authority under the newly minted Romney Logic.TM

Thats because his unemployment rate was lower than the national average. Have you still not taken a brusher course on elementary math?

I knew I smelled bs with you once again.. Thats right, we've been through this before.

The 2010 census actually shows Massachussets gained 200,000 people.

Care to try again?

But hey, stupid liberals dont understand elementary math and keep talking about his job ranking.. haha..

They do the same stupid thing with Bush as though unemployment weren't 5% for most of the Bush years. The Democrat Party faithful are way too stupid to understand creating jobs isn't something which happens when people are already working.

Whether or not Bain created jobs is irrelevant.

Bain's function, like any business, was to make money for its investors, not create jobs.

When Romney was Governor of Massachusetts, when part of his job was to keep residents of Massachusetts working, the record is clear. He excelled.

In the case of Obama, the record is equally clear. He failed by every objective measure.
