Yes, he didn't say he wanted the auto industry to go under, just a different bankruptcy avenue. I agreed with the auto bailout (which differs from many from my camp), but I don't agree with what happened to the preferred bondholders who got "screwed" in favor of the UAW. They should have gotten their cut somehow. However, I did agree with the bankruptcy judge, "In the absence of a manufacturer, the rest is a mute point". Remember, Mitt's dad was President of American Motors prior to becoming governor of Michigan. So, Mitt is a car guy too! I think he clarified this issue in the debates if one can "throw their partisan bias" aside and listen.
