Yeah, Romney stepped in to repair the damage after the bribery scandal was discovered.

If one were to attack Romney for the Salt Lake City Olympics, it'd probably be best to highlight the 29% cost overrun (I don't know how much of that is Romney's fault, but if you're making a political attack out of it I guess it wouldn't really matter anyway). Or, better yet, just highlight the typical "round up the homeless" and broken promises of "sustainable development to benefit the least fortunate among the host city's community" that accompany every Olympics to add to the whole "Mitt Romney hates poor people" meme.
