That is absolutely correct. Remember the absolute panic in the Romney camp when Bain Capital was brought by Gingrich and Perry few months ago… They wanted to absolutely take this subject out of discussion because they know that it is a very bad thing for him in the primaries let alone in the general where Obama is going to destroy him with this issue. As I said before a majority of conservatives are not in favor of the ugly business that companies like Bain Capital do and companies like that give Capitalism a bad reputation and in fact they are not the real Capitalism that a majority of voters including a majority of conservatives believe in. Bain Capital never lost money in any company they bought whether this company succeeded or went bankrupt with thousands of people losing their jobs… That is an absolute political killer….

Romney can defeat Obama only if the gas prices would remain high by elections day but anyone would be able to defeat Obama in this case. Other than that Obama is going to utterly destroy Romney with Bain Capital, it is going to very ugly for Romney if he is the nominee, it is going to be Bain Capital 24/7…. I am shocked how the so called “establishment” Republicans and many on our side cannot see this very obvious fact…

Yeah, Romney and company walking off with buckets full of cash while they sent thousands of people to the unemployment lines doesn’t make for good political optics. Especially when you find out Bain borrowed money on those companies, drove them into debt and transferred it to themselves before they went bankrupt. They created the Obama crony capitalist stimulus model even before Obama did. Romney and Bain kicked the American workers and entrepreneurs out of the airplane to reduce the “dead weight,” even while they kept the golden parachutes neatly packed in the storage compartment all for themselves.

Whether or not Republican voters agree with the message of the attacks or not, they clearly worked as showing Mitt’s baggage, and how he would be impacted negatively in the general election campaign. The exit polls in South Carolina showed that people thought Newt was more electable than Romney.
