Eh, Romney said that Detroit should not get a federal injection of capital and should literally go bankrupt. He said that the Federal loan Obama approved would seal their fate. That clearly and unequivocally did not happen. A LOT of jobs were saved directly because of Obama on that one. Not just at the automakers, but at the hordes of auto suppliers in the rust belt. Michigan is a labor state that usually goes with the Dem in the election, and none of them have forgotten what Obama has done here.

Romney can attempt to go into minutiae all he wants, but he had a VERY different prescription than Obama for our auto industry, and he delineated it with a giant bold lettered headline that read 'Let Detroit Go Bankrupt'.

I find it rather amusing that his conscious choice of bombast and bravado in choosing that headline is rightly biting him in the ass. You reap what you sow, and now he is battleing his own rhetoric. But as I said, it's really besides the point. They had very different policies, which was the whole point of Mitt's article, no matter how much he tries to spin it as the President adopting his policy now.
