[Mitt Romney - Press Conference On Economic Stimulus Vetoes]

[Reporter]
When you took office in January of ’03, job growth fell flat. You really haven’t created any jobs in your tenure. Are you personally disappointed in that? And do think this bill is going to, you know, lead to job creation?

You guys are bright enough to look at the numbers. I came in and the jobs had been just falling right off a cliff, I came in and they kept falling for 11 months. And then we turned around and we’re coming back and that’s progress. And if you are going to suggest to me that somehow the day I got elected, somehow jobs should have immediately turned around, well that would be silly. It takes awhile to get things turned around. We were in a recession, we were losing jobs every month. We’ve turned around and since the turnaround we’ve added 50,000 jobs. That’s progress.

And there will be some people who try and say, ‘well Governor, you net-net, you’ve only added a few thousand jobs since you’ve been in.’ Yeah but I helped stop, I didn’t do it alone, the economy is a big part of that, the private sector’s what drives that — up and down — But we were in free fall for three years. And the last year that I happened to be here, and then we turned it around, as a state, private sector, government sector, turned it around. And now we’re adding jobs. We wanna keep that going, to the extent we can. We’re the, we’re one part of that equation, but not the whole equation. A lot of it is outside of our control, it’s federal, it’s international, it’s private sector. But I’m very pleased that over the last a 2, 2 and a half, years we’ve seen pretty consistent job growth. 50,000 new jobs created, some great companies, we just had, last week, Samsonite announced their headquarters moving here. Companies outside Massachusetts moving in to Massachusetts. That kind of commitment, that kind of decision, ah says something about what they feel about the future of our state.
