"When Mitt Romney Came to Town" (Full Version - [Audio Trouble])

[muscleprotein]

If Ron Paul doesn't win America will crash and burn and Americans r so stupid they can't see it. I cant wait for the film "America destroyed by it's stupidity" :)

[skybeast2001]

“I am calling for the Winning Our Future Super-PAC supporting me to either edit its “King of Bain” advertisement and movie to remove its inaccuracies, or to pull it off the air and off the internet entirely," Gingrich said in a statement.

[AynManRand]

With Conservatives like this, who needs Liberals? Newt Gingrich is so desperate to get back in the game his countenance REEKS of it. He would abandon capitalism to win.

[coolvideo28]

Rick Santorum is the only Real conservative left running vote for him please before we get stuck with rommney

[freddietz96]

1.) Bain takes over a company, 2. Romney drastically fires employees to raise profits and starves production. 3. Lehman rates the company as a strong buy and the stock surges. 4. Romney heavily leverages the company with debt to sell his and Bain's stock at a ridiculous profit. 5. Once Romney and Bain bilk the company, the stock price collapses. 6. Since Romney ran a Hedge Fund, it is more than likely that he and Bain also made a fortune in Put Options on declining stock.

[mewpoet]

Wow, this is really damaging for Romney.

[VenetianSymbol]

@mewpoet I don't see how he can be elected

[enip284]

Interesting that no one in the comments want to vote for Romney OR Gingrich after this video but are turning to Ron Paul. Nice job, PAC.

[VortexTech]

@enip284 Don't assume any statistics from the comments. I'm not letting this thread drown in bare VOTE FOR [foo] comments, and most or all of those are being deleted. If such recommendations are part of other discussions related to the video, that's a different matter.

[Markus77x7]

As governor, Mitt Romney was a big government guy, raising business taxes by 20% a $309 million dollar increase, which killed tens of thousands of jobs. Under Romney's progressive anti-business policies, the state of Massachusetts ranked 47th in the nation in job creation. The man is no job creator. He's a job killer. All Romney wants is power for himself.

[HemiHead66]

Hey, this is wide spread right now. The scams have increased a 100 fold and all of the wealth is in the hands of a few. I've read that the top 18% now hold like 92% of the wealth in the U.S. The top 2% hold a pretty big chunk of that 92%. And the bottom 82% of the country hold like 8% of the wealth. Maybe less by now. This has turned into one sad ass country. And it's not going to change. Actually, it's going to get worse. We need a new way of doing things.

[RoadKill700]

Americans have two choices in this election: Ron Paul or Barack Obama. However, the greed and flaws of Romney doesn't make Obama any less responsible for this economy...

[VortexTech]

@RoadKill700 Ron Paul isn't going to be the nominee, isn't likely to run 3rd party, and wouldn't win if he did. Obama is responsible for preventing the economy from nosediving into a depression (caused by the same kind of anti-regulatory policies that Romney promotes!) that seemed almost a certainty when he first took over the office. You can see all the trend lines reverse to positive (albeit weakly) after that -- but to that point they were rushing downward at a terrible pace.

[2002lees]

@VortexTech Obmaa caused the long drawn out recession, with his anti free market capitalism

He is a crony capitlist just like Romney,

[ruffzspree]

@2002lees Obama didn't cause the "long drawn out" recession. You have no idea how anything works. Recessions last for years take the one that Reagan created in 87 that lasted until 92. Hence why part of the reason George Bush never got re-elected. You can't wave a wand and expect things to be better within a year. Besides the republican congress was cockblocking him on any plan he set forth. Republicans came to terms any plan that would create jobs would help him get re-elected. Do research.

[HemiHead66]

@RoadKill700 You're blaming Obama for this economy? Maybe you'd like to explain to me what Obama did to make us start losing 750,000 jobs a month before he took office? And what about the 23 or so months of jobs added to the economy? Do you think the GOP would do better with their kill the safe water act,. Let 200,000 boilers and incinerators spew mercury and other hazardous waste? Spray pesticides in our waterways etc. etc. Obama's not doing everything he could do, but it's better than the GOP.

[VioletFlameMusic]

@HemiHead66 That's right. As disappointing Obama has been in some respects, at least we did not enter a full blown depression because of him. Bush led us down a bad, bad road, and we're still trying to find our way out. From the Iraq war, to the jobs that we lost, deregulations, extremist far right Supreme Court appointees. Bush was a disaster for this country. Every one of the GOP candidates is a fright to me. Each one is too extremist. Each one!!

[manosmodularsystems]

@VioletFlameMusic The depression is coming; no single candidate can prevent that now (see Bernanke's 5 steps - 40% dollar deflation is step 5). Romney, Obama, Bush; they're all the same. They're all funded by the same banks and organizations. They are all proceeding at your expense and to the benefit of their international bank-corp financiers. There is no 'party' less wicked than the other; these corpo-socialists are working within each and against your well-being.

[sambunderson]

It is so tranparrently BS, it will not help Gingrich or hurt Romney. Everyone knows that Gingrich is a deperate candidate who cares more about stoking his ego than about the Republican Party or Conservatism. This will backfire on Gingrich (and Perry) big time.

[Todd82TA]

I'm into this now about 5 minutes, and all I see are old union workers from the mid-west complaining about losing their jobs and losing benefits. Why should I care? I've been laid off 3 times, I just find another job. Could it be that this video might have been funded by career union leaders that fear the loss of their cash cow with Romney?

Still, I have to ask myself... even if this guy eats babies, do I still want another 4 years of Obama?

[mdlittle5466]

Who cares about the audio synch...the only thing that's important ar the facts and, man, these facts have steered me completely away from Ol' Mitt Romney...

[bustertong1]

Sound like Willard Mitt Rommey is those greedy millionaires and billionaires, the one percenters that will steal from the income middle class and needy retirees.

If Willard Mitt Rommey becomes President of United States of America, he will sell out USA to his greedy billionaires foreign and domestic friends.

That's why Rommey's billionaires friends are donating substantial money to Rommey's campaign to be the next President of United States of America

[MsThebeMoon]

Brilliant. Hope there are several copies of this floating around before they all disappear.

[runningchance]

Forget you working classs losers! Stop your crying and vote for Mitt. Mitt is supported by the Federal Reserve, Wall Street and Banking Industries. Mitt is a good Mormon that knows the need for trickle down economics and can layoff people that are worthless. I am sick of hearing about your liberties. Vote for Romney 2012! Amen.

[DontFriendInviteMe]

We are SO GRATEFUL for the production of this video. Those involved .. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I could hug every one of you!

[patcshea53]

I thought he was just another empty suit politician, but discover that he's actually the devil incarnate. Should not be surprised.

[jeffroblueguitarman]

now you know the reason he doesnt release his tax returns

[crazycar900]

DON'T LET MITT ROMNEY COME TO YOUR TOWN.

[lassie999]

I live in Mass. you are so right about Romney he never was for the working people and he still is not for working America he is all for the rich, which means himself

[MohammedAwesome]

Whoever made this video just won the election for President Obama..

[AllBeenWonByKnowing]

Do not vote for Romney, but take care in choosing his alternative. The PAC that made this video was largely financed by Sheldon Adelson---a casino mogul worth nearly 10x what Romney is who happens to be a supporter of Newt Gingrich. The idea here is that Romney supporters will abandon him for Gingrich and he will in return reap political favors from Gingrich if he wins.

[a12igg]

This was done by a progressive socialist film maker in the same venue as Micheael Moore, paid for by a casino mogul for Newt and for Gingrich to use it just shows you he is STILL the progressive socialist he’s always been. I can’t stand Romney but this propaganda hit piece is bull sh*t. He saved many more companies but 4 these were dead companies when Bain bought them up…

[frostywomanfrizz]

I have not seen this before. How can America vote for this man? None of the rich businessmen care for the average American. Numbers USA says Ron Pauls stance on illegal immigration is bad and Romney's is very good. I cannot see that as true since I have heard what Paul says on video's. My money is on Ron Paul. Lay ruin to these rich people. Make them know the American Voter was here. Share this video with all you know.

[LisaJ4Liberty]

This isn't surprising. This man is a super war hawk and never did a day of service, nor did any of his five sons. He's such an OBVIOUS dirtbag.

[Towanda1949]

This may be from a super pac, but it seems to me that this film is a public service since it puts the truth out there. Good job!

[Kaprije1]

The Mayfair Set watch it it talks about this kind of economy... Making money by destroying jobs

[Kaprije1]

Nothing new look at The Mayfair Set - documentary you will have bigger picture of economy that romney talkes about and has same arguments for it too. Making money for managers....

[sdfkjllshadflhadfshl]

This is exactly why the MSM is behind Romney. They have 100 more stories just like this they'll feed to the OWS crowds all summer.

[2002lees]

I hope Mitt Romney doesn come to my town

[LateKnight347]

this was all legal and it is the way that business works. however we dont need a heartless corporate raider as president.

[RogerOnTheRight]

So, you have a company that is failing-- or has failed. Someone buys it, invests their own money, trying to resurrect the beast. They lay off most of the employees and keep the company alive. Years later, they have grown and hired additional people.

To Newt, this is a bad thing.

And Newt would have us believe he is the "real" conservative.

[libsarecommies]

Liberals, republican and democrat, are scum. Romney is no different.

[UncleMikeNJ]

"Creative destruction"?

No matter what his faith says, Willard Mitt Romney is going to hell.

[2002lees]

Ugh, Mitt Romney could have played himself in the movie "The Omen"

[2002lees]

Now I see what Newt has been rallying against . He''s not running against free market capitalism, he's running against the crony capitaism, the kind Obma did with the auto industry

Heck I fell out of my seat the other day when Romney said on CBS's mornin show that what he did at Bain was NO different than what Obama did with the automcompanies

[2002lees]

damn , where was this video last week?

I voted for Mitt in NH,, if I had seen this expose Id have voted for Gingrich

the lame stream media including Fox, lied to us all

[MrBushlied]

This was created by a Newt Gingrich superpac. However, the vitriolic nature of the video means that the author was none other than Newt Gingrich himself. I don't for a minute think that Gingrich has any sympathy for American workers, rather he is jealous that he is not worth $250 million like Romney. Newt realizes that whilst he has a million dollar account with Tiffany, Romney can easily buy Tiffanys, fire all of its employees, divest its assets and make yet more tens of millions.

[hotroddy74]

Wow looks like Romney is gonna play the cleanup man for the rest of our economy. Who better qualified for the official collapse? This is scary we have to vote Ron Paul.

[sublimex7]

Screw this I'm voting for whoever the media tells me not to vote for.

[100kby35]

you americans are so dumb. if you don't like investment bankers buying out companies and firing all the workers for the sake of profits, why do you support capitalism? bain capital is capitalism in its purest form. mitt romney's behavior is completely consistent with the ideology of capitalism. if you want stable jobs, health care, public holidays, sick leave, etc then all these benefits don't just happen automatically they come from government intervention in the economy aka socialism.

[Markus77x7]

[MrTtheg123]

Thank you Newt for the sincere donation to the Ron Paul campaign!!!!!

[whttevrr]

Thank You for Sharing this... How sad to think this person is the front runner in the GOP Primary.

[ColleenLass]

Is this the best they can do? Out of the hundreds and hundreds of companies that could be saved and then were saved....this film was made to show the examples of those that could not ? Who are the actors? Will convince no one out of the 6th grade. Mix of twilight zone and Mysterious Happenings. SOUNDS BITES PUT IN...REALLY PATHETIC!

[kaffdenge]

Useless

[ripemelon88]

Great ad for Ron Paul!

[RightWingTV]

After the real Mitt Romney is outted and thoroughly vetted by the voters, there will be just one REAL Constitutional Conservative candidate with a national campaign, money, and a fierce base of loyal supporters that beats Obama head to head among independents and the youth vote... Ron Paul 2012 !

[Bobbied100]

My daughter and I always wondered what happened to KB Toys! It was so strange as the stores were always filled with customers. These rats are very disgusting. 15 homes when people are pushed from theirs. How is this GOOD? Is this what Mormon teaching preach? Then they are devils if he is their shining example. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[johnkkkk100]

Mitt did what had to be done! Come on guys, be honest: would you really hire these guys that show up in this movie to work for you? They had to go! These people need to be in welfare programs, that's why we need government after all.

[Mr101VM]

What is wrong with this picture is Romney wants to look like he's outside of Washington, DC, when his behavior is typical of DC insiders. I don't want the Republican version of Obama Light in the White House. Too many American workers have suffered because the corrupt Democrats and Republicans in this country selling us and our jobs out, and using Wall Street to do it, and then bailing them out with our taxes. Enough is enough.

[focusbackwardsmsk]

this video did one thing...........made my choice easy. I will vote for Obama for a 2nd time!!!

[RedTory59]

Excellent video. Looking forward to the re-synched version.

[VortexTech]

@RedTory59 Now uploaded and viewable. See the video banner on this one for the link. Links can't go in video comments, unfortunately!

[yinkee55]

Mitt Romney,is going to sell this country down the drain if he gets elected President

[felled]

Tit SCUMney is DOOMED electorally....DEVASTATING DOC.

[mooreemmett]

Amazing video. I had no idea that this information has been floating around about Mitt Romney. I better rethink my vote.

[tommyrgrs]

@mooreemmett take a look at Ron Paul.

[AynManRand]

@mooreemmett You need to grow up

[markkrajnik]

funny how none of these videos run well but all others do shame on you youtube!

[JesusSaves1984]

Most Americans are too busy educating themselves watching Dancing with the Stars, Survivor or American Idol on television. Why in the hell would they want to educate themselves about corrupt politicians and etc... Americans are lazy, period and we all know it...

[peaceliberty4all]

@JesusSaves1984 You are correct. But people need to not just emotionally react to videos like this they need to take time to do their own research and verify the facts. Their are too many videos like this one that are spinning info to make a canidate look bad. Any American who goes to vote without first doing their own research on the canidates is voting irresponsibly.

Ron Paul 2012

[Jonsiebert1]

I might support that PAC though. Good perspective, I'm sure Romney has perrrrrfectly good reasons :)

[n10dkf]

It's frightening to find out Mitt Waffling Willard Romney thinks he's going to become a god when he dies according to his Mormon faith. Can you imagine this heartless fascist pig being God? Sure doesn't sound like any kind of heaven to me.

[youtubuzr]

You need to re-post it with the sound synced correctly

.

[VortexTech]

@youtubuzr Apparent codec problem, wasn't visible until actually on YouTube. Resynced version should appear shortly. The URL of this version can't be changed and the video can't be updated in place, but I'll note the new one in the description and include a clickable annotation for the new one that will be visible throughout the playback of this (out of sync) version.

[emr1028]

If they get this on the air, Romney is FUCKED

[ColleenLass]

@emr1028..what got to you? The very poor put in soundbites of Romney?

This is pathetic and desperate.

[ABLKMAN2KNOW]

The absolute saddest part about this film is that Mitt Romney feels, after he has devestated the lives of all these Americans, he is qualified to be our leader. I love this country, I served this country in uniform for three years and I would serve her again if called upon. Men like Mitt Romeny " pretend" to love this country when all they do is drain her of her riches as if she were a swamp. Mitt Romeny represents pain and suffering and he brings shame on America!

[MoorejrCharlie]

Mitt Romney is evil..

[miteshdoshi1985]

Change is coming again. If not Ron Paul, Vote for Obama!

[CholocateThunder4u28]

Omg....Mittens what you have done is now coming to the light

[schmoops3000]

This is capitalism. What do you expect? Newt wants deregulation, which permits these types of situations.

[bigtexansfan]

Vulture capitalism at it's finest!

[ABLKMAN2KNOW]

A disgrace before God that this man wishes, as his crowning glory, to be the leader of the free world. After he has raped so many of the American people he actually thinks he can decieve us and convince us to allow him to lead us. To add insult to injury, today, he said that anyone who complains about "how" he made his money is simply JEALOUS! Just pitiful.

[spanptotacs]

why the greedy

[BloggyG]

A freak show, all of them, with the possible exception of Huntsman -- who can't even make the radar.

[unassumption]

@BloggyG

he got third in New Hampshire

[TaxTheRich4FewerJobs]

In all seriousness, what would have happen to these companies without Bain's intervention? Reports show that more than 50% of small business and mid-sized business go bankrupt. Do these people strike you as whiners? I'm not saying they are, but....

[enip284]

@TaxTheRich4FewerJobs

but....you're saying exactly that. I'm confused. If you're going to say it then just SAY IT. If they strike you as whiners then they strike you as whiners. Doesn't make you a bad person.

[donaldgtaylor]

Romney left Bain in February 1999. Why are you talking about a toy deal in 2000?

[Towanda1949]

@donaldgtaylor Late 1999 and all this was in motion before that. He still collects passive income from Bain...check it out.

[jadrews76]

vote ron pau 2012

[kyler565]

After he promised to run a clean campain Newt Paid $40,000 for this movie. I think he overpaid.... attacking someone for making money off buying bankrupt buisness is the free market at work. Ron Paul 2012 "Its the Constitution stupid"

[enip284]

@kyler565 "attacking someone for making money off buying bankrupt buisness is the free market at work."

haha Gingrich. Doing democrats' job for them.

[donaldgtaylor]

the guy who funded this video, the 8th richest billionaire in the USA, made his money taking money from poor people who are addicted to gambling. Newt is a total dick.

[unassumption]

@donaldgtaylor

Doesn't mean Mitt isn't a dick too

[RightWingTV]

Romney... exposed !

[vaw32]

This is very sad! Mitt go home!

[johnkkkk100]

'It as like a family'... Wake up! The world has changed and there is no such a thing anymore. We need to compete with the chinese, indians and brazilians who are well more productive than us. I would also have fired all those guys in the movie.

[unassumption]

@johnkkkk100

you compete for the lowest wage if you want

[jmintegrqq]

Thank you Newt Gingrich and your super pac billionaire casion king friend Sheldon Adelson for producing this.

[cubfan747]

Mitt you will never be President! NEVER! you would be cast as Potter in "It is a Wonderful Life" Mitt your greed is Shameful, some day you will meet your God and he will not be Forgiving

[lockplay]

When WILLARD came to town. frickin dork! Carries himself like a weasel

[sallybaker1950]

1) Buy enough stock to take over.

2) Rob pension fund and give most of it to yourself as a stock dividend.

3) Give yourself the rest as a bonus for having such great dividends.

4) Increase the price of stock because of great dividends.

5) Dump all your stock before it crashes in price, because the dividends had no relation to profits.

6) Buy a public office to really make some money.

7) Act indignant at someone suggesting there is con in neocon.

RON PAUL IS YODA.

[ChiefIronCloud]

Devastating video. Romney running like he's a job creator is like Jack Kevorkian running for President saying he's a life saver. Sure opened my eyes to this guy.

[roundaboutwrongway]

Mitt Romney should be ashamed of himself.

But tapeworms don't really have feelings.

[hafizbinhussam]

If Americans elect him, they deserve this guy emptying their pockets !

[sparklingstarlitsky]

Wow.

[hcwcars1]

grand old party .......is dead forever there eating their own now !!

[alchemyrox]

@17.25 you can pretty much see why it closed down. i work where there is a union, our union understands that the company needs to make profit for it to keep its doors open. This Union clearly didnt. im happy that Romeny stood up to the union. Californian politicians could learn a thing or too

[Reaheeeely]

The epitome of greed being played out over and over and over again in this country. When will the party end? We need to vote for who Reagan who have....Newt Gingrich.

[Mgarnegle]

"Capitalism made America great..." - but everything the film describes Mitt doing is capitalism. I think when people cast judgements on capitalism and the unrestricted market they make the mistake of treating it like as a school of ethic (like liberalism, utilitarianism or socialism). It's just a machine for better or worse. All this film depicted is how capitalism is very competitive and that Mitt merely operated within the paradigm and took best advantage of his silver spoon.

[WEBDREAMSS]

AMERICA CLOSED IT EYES TO OBAMA WILL YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES TO ROMNEY ..OBAMA JR?

[hcwcars1]

grand old party .......is dead forever there eating their own now !!

[notonboard]

I support Newt Gingrich and will never vote for Romney. Not ever.

[mattequalsone]

@notonboard Gingrich is just as bad and has a worse ego.

[MountainStick]

The leering editorial tone of this film has insured my vote for Romney.

[Tobago001989]

What an ass

[NoWayRomney]

Glad that someone finally got the full version out. This country needs to know about Romney's corporate history. Who's he gonna fire, and what assets will be sell off when he's in the White House--the American Public.

We've come at Romney from a different angle, as we focus now on South Carolina. Peer to Peer Robo-Calls, and of course traditional ones too, that explains his cultish faith and where his real allegiances (after money) will be. Visit: nowayromney . org and schedule a call
