Obama can try to taint Mitt’s trip to England, but not how he saved the 2002 winter Olympics from scandal.
Hope Romney can turn this country around like he did these games.
“In the end, ticket sales surpassed those of any previous Winter Olympics. An estimated 2.1 billion people around the world watched the games over 17 days, and the United States won 34 medals.
Having faced a budget deficit of $379 million when he took over, Romney ended up with a surplus of $56 million. The money went to fund future Olympics.
When he took the job, Romney said he would accept the offered salary of $250,000 a year only if the Olympics made a profit. When it did, he turned his salary over to charity. In addition, he contributed $1 million to the games.”

What do you think Obama would have done to the games?
I do not want to think about it.
It was right after 9/11 and ppl did not want to feel happy aobut anything.
Mitt did a great job.!
great link ❤
Obama would have thought everyone was applauding HIM and not the athletes. Obama and the DNC are quiet on this. Could it be because he worked at no pay? That he also donated a million? Makes the guy look charitable and makes Obama look like an arse. I often wondered it the taxes go up, does that mean donations fall?
