If Romney is nominated, the Dems will paint him as a Wall Street executive who shut down American businesses and shipped American jobs overseas.
Bill Bucklery once wrote that the worst thing about capitalism is capitalists. Bad men will inevitably rise to the top of companies along with good men, and often the bad men are more able. But capitalism is not an ideology. It depends on men making free choices that are often the wrong choices. Just as football games are something won by inches, sometimes by a “Hail Mary” pass, so there are many way to succeed and many ways to fail. Some of the successful ones are shady, and are based more on connections than ability. We are just now beginning to see what sort of businessman Romney was.

"GINGRICH: Well, first of all I'm not attacking Bain Capital. I'm questioning Mitt Romney's judgment; I'm questioning Mitt Romney's decisions. I've raised the question, which I think's a totally legitimate question: What about some companies that Bain took over, uhhh, that went bankrupt? And what I've said is this isn't about free enterprise. This is one of those phony efforts to throw up a smokescreen. This isn't about capitalism. This isn't even about private equity funds. This is about one person who wants to be president of the United States. He owes the country an explanation: Why were certain decisions made, how were they done, what was the consequence of them, does he stand by them in retrospect?
RUSH: Okay. So it is obvious that Newt not backing down in the attack on Romney. Even though he said he agreed with the guy in Spartanburg, South Carolina. So then Greta said, "So, what I understand from what you said is, you're not anti-venture capitalism, that you're pro-capitalism. So let me ask you this: At what point is it sort of fair to sort of clamp down on venture capitalism? Is there a point where there is abuse and it's not just sort of open season for venture capitalists to do whatever they want?"
GINGRICH: Well, I think there's always, uhh, some boundaries of free-market behavior that you watch and you check. If Governor Romney thinks there's nothing there, then he ought to just hold a press conference, walk the news media through it, explain how it was done, let people see it. But I find it strange that they are so sensitive on this issue that they've sort of pushed the panic button. But -- but -- but -- but understand me: This is not about free enterprise. This is about the character, values and judgment of a particular person who is running for president of the United States.
RUSH: Okay. So I get the walk-back now. What Newt's trying to do here is walk back his indictment of capitalism, and he's trying to focus it on Romney as a mean guy. He's trying to get everybody focused like a laser on the idea that Romney is a cold-hearted, mean-spirited, heartless SOB who doesn't care who gets hurt as long as he profits. That's how I read this. He said "character." He said, "We gotta look at the character, the values and judgment of a particular person who's running for president." He did. Character. That's what Newt said, "character values and judgment particular person." He's walking back this whole notion that he's talking about capitalism and Bain.
That's right. He wants to talk about the character and values and judgment of a particular person. I assume he doesn't mean himself. No, he doesn't mean himself. He's talking about Romney here. "It's about the character, values, and judgment of a particular person who's running for the president of the United States." That's the "character, values and judgment" of Mitt Romney. That's what he's trying to say. Now, we move to this morning on Fox & Friends. Guest, former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani. Steve Doocy, the weather guy, said, "You pick up the phone as soon as you're done and you say to Newt what"

Saying that a person who objects to corporate plunder is anti-capitalist is exactly like saying that a person who objects to abortion is anti-medicine.
It’s absurd, insulting and borders on intentional misdirection.
Anti-capitalist...what a joke. Bain should have been named Shylock.
The video is filled with lies and distortions. Really despicable (and it was produced by Democrats!). Read up on it: Newt’s Hit Piece Movie on Romney is Filled With Misinformation, Inaccuracies
