Romney's "Bain"

As the esteemed Mr. Bogg noticed, Mitt Romney is quite proud of his time at Bain, and will hear no one speak ill of it:
Mitt Romney said his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination are turning the 2012 primary into a “trial” on free enterprise by attacking his record at Bain Capital, the private equity group he helped start.
Can I get a witness for the prosecution?
Way to make money off of your constituents' suffering Mitt. You sir are the embodiment of free enterprise (if you've got a millions in the bank from mom and dad). [cross-posted at Firedoglake]

This is “inoculation”. By November it’ll be an old story. Just as true, but the media needs an excuse to ignore it.

It’s gonna take a billion dollars to sell Re$tore Our Failure.

Unfortunately, Romney has friends with deep pockets who are engaging in that same predatory capitalism at which Bain and Romney were so successful, and they want to be able to go on doing it. With Romney in the White House, they think they will, and they probably are willing to put up a billion dollars to that end. Obama will give them 80-90% of what they want, but, true to character, they want it all.

I do not believe that Skippy has ever clarified exactly where he was creating jobs and for whom.
