On the debate stage in New Hampshire Saturday, Mitt Romney again said he’s responsible for 100,000 new jobs, a claim he makes on the campaign trail that’s been pretty much proven less than accurate.

It includes the net of both. I’m a good enough numbers guy to make sure I got both sides of that. The simple ones, some of the biggest, for instance, there’s a steel company called Steel Dynamics in Indiana. Thousand, of jobs there. Bright Horizons Childrens Centers sports authority, about 15,000 jobs there. Staples alone, 90,000 employees. That’s a business we helped start from the ground up.
