Wow, that’s a first. Never, in the history of mankind, have disgruntled employees had anything negative to say about a former boss. How did they ever find not just one, but two (TWO!!) of Romney’s former employees to diss him?

I’m sure this will be a nice, even-handed analysis of Romney’s time at Bain.

A commie 'RAT politician also involved in Bain Capital trashing Mitt over his assocation with Bain? ROTFL!

The commie 'RATS are more desperate than I thought.

FUBO

I’m sure part of his speech will include want to donate all the money he made while Romney was CEO to charity. Hypocrits are born everyday.

Maybe they need to attend a Massachusetts clambake in a big high speed Oldsmobile after the festivities.

Should be fun, right?

One is an Obama bundler and one is an failed RAT Massachusetts pol.

GUARANTEE R2 is setting a trap. The media cycle will be all about these two defending themselves against ads that R2 has already made. Bain is squarely going to be dropped in Team Obambi's lap, with all of the RAT politicians and Orgs who have their money there. Not to mention the fact that Obama Admin used Bain to bail out govt entities.

I wish we’d have had the forethought to trot out some Solyndra employees.

So democrats are showcasing their “ vulture capitalists”. That should go over well with anybody who knows the meaning of the word hypocrisy.

Steve Pagliuca. Registered Democrat, Obama campaign contributor, multi-billionaire. Also donated to Romney back in the 90s.

http://www.wbur.org/2009/11/24/senate-defining-situation-pagliuca

His campaign slogan is “Pags = Jobs,” but the history of Bain Capital reveals a company that excels in the art of the leveraged buy-out. This is a process in which Bain often banks huge profits, but sometimes leaves acquired companies saddled with enormous debt. Some of those companies have been forced to make massive layoffs.

The process begs the question: What’s the real bottom line at Bain Capital? Wealth creation for investors or job creation for workers? When asked, Pagliuca hedged.

“Well, you know, that’s a complex question,” Pagliuca said. “What venture capital does is invest in new ideas and venture capital will fund them. Funding them is creating thousands of jobs because they essentially created a new industry.”

But Bain Capital also buys out established businesses in old industries, such as KB Toys and Dade International, both of which resulted in the lay off of hundreds of workers. Pressed on this, Pagliuca hedged even more.

“There’s investments in public companies and there’s debt in public companies, and there’s job creation and there’s job losses, and the job losses mainly come from competition, from global competition,” he said. “And those job losses in the United States now are 15 million unemployed. And there are 320,000 in Massachusetts. That’s why I got into this race, to try to reverse that.”

Assuming the only place they’ll be seen is C-Span gavel-to gavel coverage because nothing such as that would have been widely televised from the RNC.

So how does this work? I hate Bain, therefore I like obama? Somehow I don’t think voters will make that connection.

Steve Pagliuca was SO successful at getting out his message while running for Teddy’s seat that while getting free airtime on WRKO every FRiday he still couldn’t score. I remember saying to my then Sophomore in HS at the time of our commute...”is this Dope for real?...How the heck did he get to be so wealthy with a mentality like that?”
My boy warbled “Witchcraft” ala Frank Sinatra.

Oh we had a good howl over that one!

Steve Pagliuca -- managing partner at Bain Capital, considered the unofficial head of the firm.

You are either the head or your not. Since he lost to Coakley in the dem primary, I can guess he is a richard cranium.

Time for Romney to get personal. Bring on an ad starring Wayne Allen Root talking about how no one remembers him. Flash that brochure with Obama’s Bio stating he was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia. Remind people that in Obama’s own book he talks of being mentored by a communist. Remind people about Ayers and rezko. Bring it on Hussein.
