Why would he continue to pay their wages? The election is over their services are no longer needed. So why would it even be consider that they should continue to receive wages for a service they are no longer providing. This whole statement has been misconstrued to make Romney look like a terrible person. He did what any other american would do.

That's exactly what he would have done to us too as a country

That is pretty cold. Probably will translate into a LOT more committed volunteers for the next Democratic nominee.

Well, he likes being able to fire people that provide him with services. He didn't need their service anymore, so he fired them. But seriously, why were usage rules not established when the cards were issued? If they had been told their cards would be canceled at, say midnight, you wouldn't have heard anything about this because they would have planned accordingly. But in the absence of rules, people wrongly assumed that they would be able to get themselves home, pay their hotel and other campaign related bills (not unreasonable) before the cards would be canceled. So, if it wasn't clear that he ran a bad campaign after the loss, this little episode make that quite clear.

When you sell your soul to work for the devil..... you should know what kind of hell you will get as the wages for that sin.

I am not surprised. This is a perfect example of how Mitt Romney only cares about himself.

We've always known he was the "turd sandwich & the douche" all-in-one. (Southpark reference, for those unfamiliar).

would love to read the Rep view on this, where are they?

Selfishness is a Republican/Conservative trait that they have held since resisting our America Revolution many years ago-------

He was a hatchet man, that's how he made his money, why would he treat anyone any better than this. And Christian Churches would support him over Obama (a Christian).

it's in defeat that the true side of one is revealed!

Imagine if he had been president, he would have done the same with many citizen

cheap greedy jerk

Mitt the miserly Mutt. He wasn't man enough to show gratitude to his loyal campaign workers, by paying for their final bill.
He is one cheap sob.
Now is the time for the proper authorities to continue the investigations in his criminal activities.

It is amazing what these guys are admitting now. The staffer who was left holding the bag didn’t seem to mind finding his hands full of bag. He simply points out that leaving the little guy holding the bag is fiscal conservatism. They seem to be so undone by this whole experience that we have a campaign worker saying a good conservative screws the little guy without too much concern about how it sounds.

Little Mittens is having a hissy because he can't loot the US treasury like dubya's friends did. And poor Ann can't buy the Hamptons now.

Rmoney cancelling credit cards causing hardship,Tea party coal mine operators lay offs,Papa John hiring freeze,while buying Millions in Super Bowl ads.Other Conservadumb business owners have penalised their workers .This is what Conservatives do....throw a tantrum when reality doesn't jive with your conservabubble view.

Serves them all right. They knew he was a snake.

What ever made them think that he wouldn't bite them like he's bitten everyone else before them ?

Just think what he would have done as POTUS.

Downsizing is never a splendid thing. Just ask the poor saps in Bainville.

Looking on the bright side - at least Mittens didn't tackle them and cut their hair!

It is as if he were punishing his staff because he lost.

Romney has neither class nor breeding. He is a tight-fisted empty suit.

Easy to amass a fortune if you don't care who you hurt, screw, abuse, exploit, then discard when you can't get anything more from them.

Look out, America. Mitt is gonna be in a pissy mood since he found out we don't love him any more than he cares about us. And he is gonna take his revenge. Just watch.

Any bets the GOP campaign is really in the red again? Like last time! Fiscally conservatives, my a$$! And they were going to save the economy! Yeah...theirs!

Serves to fuckers right--they supported that evil SOBand wanted to shove him down out throats! Maybe this can be a wake-up call.

This is so tacky and so typical.

In Montana, the Republican running for U.S. Senate not only never bothered to concede, he didn't even show up at his own Election Night event to thank his staff.

This shows what kind of man Romney really is. The reason he has so much money is because he screwed others out of their jobs. Outsourcing and vulture capitalism is his forte. Thank God that the majority of voters picked the community organizer who really cares about others, rather than the selfish jerk that left those that worked hard to try to get him elected left holding the bag.

what a douchebag.

This is a demonstration of how he would have treated the American people - he's done this over and over again, to many now unemployed workers - when he bought the companies and dumped the workers. "True Mitt."
Second nature, second class, all the way.

There is no depths to how low Romney will go. Can you imagine what he would have done with America's safety nets when he can't even show any integrity with his own staffers. Pure evil.

Wow, Obama cries as he is thanking his staffers, and Mittens leaves his staffers stranded.....actions still speak louder than words.

Thanks for posting this. I had heard something about it, but didn't get the details. That is pretty ruthless, without even a text, phone call or some notification to his campaign workers.
