Democrats in 2002 tried making the opposite argument that they are today — that Romney had not only left Bain in 1999, but had also effectively left Massachusetts as well to work on the Salt Lake City Olympics.
They insisted that Romney had become a resident of Utah, not Massachusetts, and was therefore ineligible to run for governor.
The Ballot Commission agreed with Democrats at that time that Romney had left Bain Capital on February 11, 1999, after having been employed in Massachusetts from 1975 to 1999. Furthermore, the commission noted that while Romney returned to Massachusetts for social and business events, none of the events had anything to do with Bain. Romney attended board meetings for Staples, but Romney sat on that board, as well as others. No mention was made of any Bain events or meetings attended by Romney — and in that case, Romney would have had an incentive to play up his involvement at Bain, in order to establish eligibility for the office he was seeking.
such utter liars. I cannot believe sane, rational people are buying this lie.
In fact, I do not believe the people telling this lie are sane and rational.
They aren't that stupid......they KNOW it's a bunch of BS, but it serves the purpose of deflecting attention away from Obama's horrendous record.
