Might this be the most Mitt statement in the history of Mitt?

I shouldn’t need to tell you that the mine was shut down for safety that day, and therefore the workers’ attendance was both mandatory and unpaid. You already probably figured that out.

Moore told Blomquist that managers “communicated to our workforce that the attendance at the Romney event was mandatory, but no one was forced to attend.” He said the company did not penalize no-shows.

It wasn’t legitimately mandatory.
