So, I guess Baon employees who support Obama are okay. It’s only those who run against him that he has a problem with.

Don’t think so. “It’s the economy, stupid.”

I know several people who worked for Bain and several who worked for companies acquired by Bain. Those who are acquired always have a sob story about layoffs, lost opportunities, and mercenary Bain management. To that I say, stop crying. If your company wasn’t struggling they wouldn’t have bought you out and leveled the landscape. Build a solid company and Bain won’t swoop in and snag you at a bargain price. Build an unprofitable company with potential and they’ll come in, take over, and put the inefficient legacy employees out of work. Big deal.

I’m sure we’ll hear sob stories about outsourcing jobs and displacing workers; but if those workers added to the bottom line they wouldn’t have been displaced. If you don’t like the Bain business model then you should move to Scandinavia.

Yup, exactly.

Losers & whiners in every company. Someone has to be in the bottom performing 20%.

Shouldn’t Obama be spending his time pointing out the great successes of his Presidency? Pointing out his successful record and fulfills promises? The fact he spending his convention attacking Romney says it all. He is a FAILED PRESIDENT!

Bain is a good PE company that has done a great job of turning a lot of companies around. Part of the strategy for all PEs is to achieve synergies, which means sometimes doing the things that need to be done, but that the previous owners were afraid or reluctant to do, such as consolidating operations that are running inefficiently, combining sales channels, and taking advantage of low-cost manufacturing locations. ALL companies do the same thing, some are just not as good at it. Bain’s results speak for themselves, and from firsthand experience I can say they are a highly professional and ethical organization.

What Bain does is no different than what Clint Eastwood said needs to be done - when you’re not getting the job done, you have to go. It’s called putting adults in charge of running things.

In any business you will always find disgruntled employees(Thats where the term disgruntled came from) every business you find a few people who were fired or were just not happy for one reason or another. You can always find someone who bad mouths a business. Most people will see that here, no one is going to fall for this crap just like they didnt fall for the guy who said that Romney murdered his wife, its desperation from Dems who know they are going to lose

This could work. Bain Capital is one of Mitt Romney’s weaknesses.

Wonder if one of the disgruntled former employees will turn out to be the man who made two ads for the Obama campaign...the last being the one in which he alleges Romney was responsible for his wife’s death? Stephanie Cutter vowed she’d never heard of the man before, and ended up being caught in a lie! After watching Axelrod and Pouffe on the networks yesterday, and knowing all the lies Obama has told; you wonder if there is anyone associated with the DNC that knows the definition of TRUTH.
