At a townhall in Bethlehem, NH, Romney said that the NLRB’s suit against Boeing was an example of crony capitalism. He explained that the administration blocked Boeing from relocating to South Carolina because it wasn’t a union state, and the administration was beholden to unions. We have to go back to “the rule of law,” Romney said.

The NLRB’s suit against Boeing – dropped earlier this month – happened because the board alleged that the company had broken existing labor law, not in spite of existing law.
