Conservatives: Was Romney your first choice?

Well without going back on a one for one as i recall, The deficit when he took office was $1B, when he left office it was $3B. He set a historical national record for tax increases of $981M in two forms 1. direct $241M, 2 $740M in fees (tax). Regarding Olympics, he was conditionally and contractually awarded the on the condition all internal and external operations, correspondence and finances would be provided to the states University for modeling Olympics and oversight purposes. He came into the position as a result of the fact that scandal and corruption had plagued it with pay-offs and dirty tricks spanning the world. When he left to go to Massachusetts to explore the possibility of running for Gov. he appointed his CEO of Bain Capital to fill his position. After the event ended the University and State went to collect all the records, accounting and data they were informed that everything (records hard and electronic), had been destroyed, everything. It turned out he file false papers to run for Gov and was caught ultimately was forced to re-file and amend several years of tax returns. He was (his company) was sued by the State for defrauding medicare or Medicade out of $27M in blood testing charges, was found guilty and fined $16M, which the company had to pay. When he left office, 1st time ever, he had his staff remove all the administrations hard drives from all the computers and destroyed them, he then paid out of pocket to replace them, strange given the Olympics situation. I could go on there is more but this is a sample.
