Romney Tells “Humorous” Story About His Father Shutting Down A Factory In Michigan

Posted by | March 28, 2012 19:12 | Filed under: Top Stories


To ingratiate himself with Wisconsin voters, Mitt Romney’s joke was on Michigan.

“One of most humorous I think relates to my father. You may remember my father, George Romney, was president of an automobile company called American Motors … They had a factory in Michigan, and they had a factory in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and another one in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,” said Romney. “And as the president of the company he decided to close the factory in Michigan and move all the production to Wisconsin. Now later he decided to run for governor of Michigan and so you can imagine that having closed the factory and moved all the production to Wisconsin was a very sensitive issue to him, for his campaign.”
