Game over. Romney ended his chances with that lie. It is hard to see how even his major supporters can take Romney seriously now.

He is used to coming in and telling people all their jobs are going to China. So telling this crowd of people was easy for him.

from the article:

Romney repeats false claim of Jeep outsourcing to China; Chrysler refutes story

A spokesperson for the Romney campaign declined to comment.

In fact, Chrysler is investing $500 million at its Toledo North Assembly Plant and plans to add 1,105 new workers by the third quarter of 2013 to build an all-new SUV that will replace the Jeep Liberty.

Production of the new SUV will begin next summer and the hiring process for the new workers, who are scheduled to start by the next fall, has begun, said Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson.

Romney’s comments were immediately skewered by auto industry observers and Romney’s political opponents because Chrysler added about 7,000 workers in the U.S. and Canada since emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2009.

The company is planning to add about 900 workers at its pickup plant in Warren by March.
