re: #228 Obdicut

No, according to that article he supported financing post-bankruptcy, but the point was an orderly bankruptcy. Unless he was actually implying that the managed bankruptcy should involve credit from the government, in which case he really has no objections to what went down.

I think that’s exactly what he was advocating (as well as more public investment in energy); I think Romney’s problem is not that he advocated an idiotic idea, but that he was a coward and refused to take credit for advocating the right idea (and a path that was close to what Obama eventually took). There’s no way he could do that in front of a conservative GOP audience.
