Mitt Romney's endless Failing Grades....

GordonGecko

President
Again....don't argue with me....tell RICK SANTORUM! (or if you have no way of defending Mitt...talk about the President)

•D in Spending when graded against other governors according to the 2005 Fiscal Policy Report Card produced by the non-partisan Cato Institute.

•F in Job Creation as the Massachusetts state economy ground to a halt with Romney as its steward and ranked 47th out of 50 states.

•F in Entitlements and Growing Government as Romney created a brand new entitlement (RomneyCare) and then mandated that all individuals purchase health insurance and all employers with 11 or more employees provide it.

•F in Health Insurance Costs as, according to Beacon Hill Institute at Suffolk University in Boston, state health expenditures increased by $414 million, private health insurance costs increased by $4.311 billion, federal Medicaid for Massachusetts increased by $2.418 billion, and Medicare expenditures increased by $1.426 billion for a total increase of $8.569 billion in RomneyCare’s first 5 years.

•F on Cap and Trade as he appointed litigation-happy environmentalists to key government jobs, flip-flopped on cap and trade, flip-flopped on carbon taxes, and made the following promise about a coal-fired plant: “I will not create jobs or hold jobs that kill people, and that plant, that plant kills people.”

•F on Wall Street Bailouts as he supported giving taxpayers the Wall Street bailout tab –even though they already paid dearly for the abuses and excesses with their retirement savings losses.

•F for Raising Taxes as he increased fees and taxes by over $740 million in his only term as governor.

Hell, it would appear that his report card is even worse than that of Big Ricky down in Texas!
 
damn shame your employer doesn't make you stay home for a month or more....................

it's evident the business doesn't have the proper Firewall
 
as MA came to know Mitt, the less they liked him.

the longer he served, the more Mitt realized a re-election bid would be for naught.

funny bit of trivia.......Mitt lost a senate race to Ted Kennedy by a greater margin than Santorum lost his senate reelection bid.

18 points. wow.
 
The Dems had the world involved in the Global Warming scam... Romney found out the scientists had lied and cooked the books. So - fo-git-about-it.... it's a fraud issue and the Democrats are the culpable liars for the biggest scam in human history.
 
Dawg? NCM?

I didn't say those things.....RICK SANTORUM did. You have no argument with the former Senator about them????????? :)
 
I suppose Romney's extremely-well-paid campaign propagandists will come up with explanations for why we can't hold him responsible for Massachusetts taking a nose dive on his watch. But it's worth remembering this wasn't just the result of Massachusetts getting sucked down by some ugly national trend. When Romney was governor, Massachusetts underperformed RELATIVE TO THE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE. For example, when he came to office the unemployment rate in Mass was lower than in the country as a whole, by the time he left it was higher than the country as a whole. and after a few years of leadership by his Democratic successor, Massachusetts again has an unemployment rate lower than the country as a whole. The pattern across multiple indicators is similar: Massachusetts started the Romney era looking better than most of the country, spent the Romney era falling apart relative to other states, then recovered once he was out of office. It's a testament to the power of Romney's campaign money that someone with such a startling track record of abject failure could be a front runner for higher office.

I just love that Newt and Pope Ricky....are writing the Democrats' campaign ads for them.

:D
 
Anybody But Obama.
Osama's last plan to knock off Obama so we got stuck with Joey might have just blown up in his face, considering Barry is doing everything possible to turn the United States into the land of the Eunuch.

What's weird is....NONE of these Reightwing posters actually DISagree with Santorum on his grades for Mitt. They all go off on other tangents.
