Mitt Romney Drops Out - Our Opinion Only, The Best and Worst Company to Work For in Reno

Mitt Romney, the candidate we endorsed for President, has suspended his campaign:

Commentary: After looking at all the candidates for president, we endorsed Mitt Romney. We only did that after meeting him and talking to him. Its a sad day in America today. But we have not heard the last of Mitt Romney. He would make a great vice presidential candidate with John McCain. America needs Mitt and he won't let us down. This is only the beginning.

The great thing about Mitt Romney is that he has ethics. His word is his bond. He is not litigious. He is smart. He is a great employer. He suspended his campaign immediately when he realized he would not win. He is efficient and frugal. He is a very moral man and has empathy for his fellow human beings. I know he comes across as almost mechanical at times. But I met him personally and my doubts were erased immediately. Our early Nevada caucus gave us a chance to meet all the candidates, the true test is when you shake their hand. I shook Bill Richardson's hand, nothing. I shook Mitt Romney hand, it hurt for a day. He would make a great President, just as he has made a great businessman.

Speaking of business, based solely on where we would want to work and not want to work, here are our annual Reno Employers Awards. Paraphrasing Mitt Romney - It all flows from the top:

Best Company to Work For in Reno - The Peppermill Hotel and Casino - The employees in there are great. If I was not self-employed, thats where I would work. From Tony in the Sports Book, to Pete in the Sports Deli, Art in Security or Rica the cocktail waitress - what class people to work with. The Paganetti Family, nice people with vision. The vision to reinvest their money and their partners money back into the place. Its turned into a first class operation.
