So you'd have us believe that $14.6 billion was spent on this project and Ted Kennedy, the single most powerful politician in the state and the patron saint of everything union, had absolutely no connection with how that money was spent or who it went to? Get a grip on reality.
From most of what I've read about this project in the recent past, Romney has been trying for his entire term to fire the head of the project and gain some sort of control over it.

Bechtel gave quite a bit of money to the Democrats, too; 59% to Republicans and 41% to the Democrats in 2003. So what does that prove, other than Bechtel is contributing to both parties just like a whole host of other American companies?
