The Boston Globe is not backing down.
Following Mitt Romney's television blitz on Friday, in which he dismissed the assertion that he stayed at Bain Capital past February 1999, the Globe is out with a new report pointing to more regulatory filings, reports and quotes from the candidate that suggest he was involved with the firm past that time:
Romney’s lawyer at the hearing said that Romney’s work in the private sector continued unbroken while he ran the Olympics.
“He succeeded in that three-year period in restoring confidence in the Olympic Games, closing that disastrous deficit and staging one of the most successful Olympic Games ever to occur on US soil,†said Peter L. Ebb from Ropes & Gray.
“Now while all that was going on, very much in the public eye, what happened to his private and public ties to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts? And the answer is they continued unabated just as they had.â€
The Romney campaign declined to comment on the record about whether the business trips and board meetings were related to Bain Capital obligations.

Hold on, perhaps we should check out the hearing documents to learn why Romney would travel to MA....
18. As part of his employment with the Salt Lake Organizing Committee, the
Respondent traveled to: Colorado for meetings with the United States
Olympic Committee; Washington, D.C. for meetings with the White House
Task Force for Organizing the Winter Games and other federal agencies;
international locations to meet with the International Olympic Committee; and
other widespread locations, including Massachusetts, to meet with potential
Olympic Game sponsors. While employed with the Salt Lake Organizing
Committee, the Respondent also traveled to Atlanta, Detroit, Washington,
D.C. and New York City to attend the passing of the Olympic torch. The
Respondent returned to Massachusetts and spent an entire day with the
Olympic torch.
19. In addition to his Olympic-related trips to Massachusetts, the Respondent
made several other social and business trips to Massachusetts. In particular,
the Respondent returned to Massachusetts in June 1999 to attend his son’s
graduation and speak at the commencement for the Belmont Hill School. In
addition, the Respondent returned to Massachusetts to celebrate Thanksgiving,
to tour a newly constructed temple built by his church and again for its
dedication, to celebrate the marriage of his son at that temple and returned for
the birth of his grandchildren as well as other social occasions.
20. While employed with the Salt Lake Organizing Committee, the Respondent
continued to serve on three (3) boards of directors (Staples, Marriott
International and Life Like). The Respondent returned to Massachusetts from
Utah to attend meetings at Staples. The Respondent declined to join any
boards in Utah, with the exception of the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce,
which he joined as an ex-officio member in an effort to promote and
coordinate the Winter Olympics.

Please Just Stop, and as it has been previously noted - your assertion is that he saved the Olympics AND ran a successful Bain Capital? Dude rocks. We need him as president.
