Clueless: Chris Matthews credits Ford's success to Obama'a auto bailout

Ford wasn't part of the auto bailout.

Via Newsbusters:

CHRIS MATTHEWS: It seems to me one thing that somebody of a business background like Romney, and that’s where he spent his life, making money, should be very good at picking winners, testing business character, who’s got it, who doesn’t have it. Alan Mulally, the head of Ford now, has taken them to number five in the country as a profitable corporation. Ford is back as the number five most profitable company in the country right now.

Again, back to you, John, it seems to me that somebody should have paid attention to the fact that Mulally having this kind of gift and ability to do this kind of thing, and he didn’t bet on him. Obama bet on him.
