[QUOTE="RickN, post: 1694323, member: 8854"] OK, Romney is far from my first choice but he is better then Obama on a few key points. 1) Romney has a better economic plan that does not include bankrupting the US and putting everybody out of work. 2) Romney will not veto any and all attempts to get rid of Obamacare. 3) Romney is a tiny, tiny, tiny bit better on the 2nd. 4) If we do get enough conservatives in congress to start making real reforms and cutting the size of the government, Romney will not veto it on general principle. That is about it. EDIT: Before I forget and someone brings up the Bain thing, here is what really happened, Partly because of the import problem, the Holson family sold out to Bain Capital in 1986; however, the Holson Company, which was still managed by family members, continued to have problems under the Bain umbrella. To return the organization’s competitive edge, Bain called in a series of consulting teams, including one from Price Waterhouse. Among the members of the Price Waterhouse team was Hoffmeister. Bain asked Hoffmeister to join Holson as head of the company in 1988 to effect a turnaround. In the same year, 1988, Holson opened a factory in Gaffney, South Carolina, where photo albums were produced. The factory initially employed 100 people and eventually around 150–all brand-new jobs that were created by Holson under Bain’s guidance. Unfortunately, the new company, Holson Burnes, was losing money, suffering net losses in both 1991 and 1992. The new management “worked to streamline the company, eliminate overlap, cut production costs, and jettison poorly performing units.” Those efforts succeeded in making Holson Burnes profitable; they also resulted in closing the Gaffney plant in 1992, after four years of operation.
