Calling Romney a "successful businessman" may not have been entirely accurate. If you judge that term by the amount of dollars he took from his businesses, then he is very successful. If you consider that he made his money disposing of other peoples businesses, and taking the assets they built into the business... then he is more of a leach, a drain on business... he disposed of businesses for a fee. Not much to brag about... then he didn't even pay taxes on those dollars. What a guy!

the only thing that would make either of them successful (subjective by all accounts by most americans) is the ability to continue to try and fail try and fail try and fail.....that is AFTER pay back what one 'borrows'....let's see... is GM successful?????
again...WEALTH AND RICH are 2 different fruits......
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS

Lol! Only government can take the assets from a business and be a leech and drain on a business. Government HATES guys like Romney competing with them.
Obama is VERY successful at being a drain; he has a three year record to prove it. I know Obama isn't bragging about it, he is actually creating "wars on women" and other diversionary narratives to distract people of his wonderful record. What is the unemployment rate? How much is gas?

Lop-sided....where's the list of the other companies Bain bought? Which companies did they move jobs overseas? Which companies don't exist anymore? How many on the list were downsized? In their turnaround program, what else happened? Without divluging specifics, one of the companies on the list is one that I manage purchases from. Bain is 3rd ower since I have managed them. After Bain, pricing went up; quality went down; plant closed and production moved to Mexico; I am in process of re-sourcing them. I don't see that as a success story.

Mitt Romney helped secure a federal bailout to keep Bain & Company from collapsing, according to government documents obtained by Rolling Stone.
"Even worse, the federal bailout ultimately engineered by Romney screwed the FDIC - the bank insurance system backed by taxpayers - out of at least $10 million. And in an added insult, Romney rewarded top executives at Bain with hefty bonuses at the very moment that he was demanding his handout from the feds."

It sounds like what the Obama administration did with the banks and Solyndra, finally Box is starting to get it. The government didn't do it the taxpayers are the force behind the power but the government tries to take all the credit.
