So Romney had half as many people, and paid them twice as much. Seems like a wash to me. Would seem reasonable to assume that if Obama had half as many people, he would pay them twice as much...and if Romney had twice as many people, he'd probably pay them half as much. On Fri, Nov 9, 2012 at 1

That's a great link, Ray. I hope everyone reads that. It's a reminder that Romney wasn't some monster. He was a very smart and accomplished guy who would NOT have been a disaster as president, as so many people seem to have claimed. Yes, he had ideas that many people, myself included, disagreed w

I think this falls in line with my views on Romney. From a business point of view the man is mitigating his losses and it was a great move to do just that. He moved decisively to remove the loss of capital as soon as possible. This is exactly the way a corporation would behave in the same situatio
