A lot of Olympic projects end up in a state of decay. If they built something they are actually getting use out of, the guy is brilliant.

Bentway, As a resident of SLC, I appreciate that Romney conned America into coughing up tax dollars to pay for permanent improvements to my city, including our light rail system, under the guise of the Olympics! The SLC 2002 Olympics were a major success. And it only cost the federal government $1.5 billion. A small price to pay to not only save the 2002 Olympics from scandal, but to also revive the city and provide it with infrastructure that paid for itself many times over. Compare that with Obama's $800 billion "stimulus" that is having absolutely no effect today. Tenchusatsu
