More Romney Secrets
Word is that Mitt Romney plans to attend the Summer Olympics and the prevailing theory is that he hopes to use the event to focus on another part of his biography: his work with the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics in 2002. Theoretically, this could take the focus off Bain Capital and Romney's refusal to release his tax returns for a while.
Except that wherever you go in Mitt Romney's biography, you run into a wall of secrecy. It turns out that the records from those 2002 Olympics, which were donated to the University of Utah in an effort to create historical transparency about the event, are still not available to the public ten years later. And ABC News is reporting that many of the records may have already been destroyed even before being donated.
Sources have told ABC that documents likely to have been destroyed include "financial documents, contracts, appointment calendars, emails and correspondence." In other words, exactly the kind of materials that would tell us a lot about the actual substance of Romney's highly touted business experience.
