some redirect-vandalism (fail)...I personally don't know how to remove it.

A reference has been added to add another perspective regarding the campaign statement regarding auto production in China. There has been some edit warring going on regarding this addition to the article, so I thought it best to bring to the talk page to discuss whether or not is should be included. To me, it seems that without this aspect the section is a little one-sided and POV. I hope others will weigh in here rather than just add and revert. 72Dino (talk) 16:04, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This recent addition to the article seems questionable. Why is this one of many rhetorical statements used during the campaign being singled out. The link goes to a recent article of questionable value. This appears to be an attempt to add links to other articles in an attempt to bolster the newly created article.Springee (talk) 11:59, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I propose that Planned presidential transition of Mitt Romney be merged into Mitt Romney presidential campaign, 2012. I think that the content in the article is already mostly covered in the "Readiness Project" section. *Seen a Mike* 22:36, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
