Mitt Romney blames factory closed during Bush years on President Obama

Visiting a closed Ohio drywall factory Thursday, Mitt Romney seized on the plant's years-long shuttering to hammer home the point spelled out on a banner hanging over his head: "Obama Isn't Working."

"Had the president's economic plans worked – President Obama's plans worked – it would be open by now. But it's still empty," Romney told a crowd of supporters gathered inside the National Gypsum Company plant in Lorain, Ohio.

"And it underscores the failure of this president's policies with regards for getting the economy going again," Romney added.

The factory closed in 2008, when George W. Bush was president.  It was President Obama's predecessor whose policies led to the factory closing.

"What are they going blame him for next?" Lorain City Council President Joel Arredondo told the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "The Titanic?"
