I have no other explanation for how poorly he's run his campaign. How would YOU like to run on the Republican platform? "Hey folks, we're going to raise your taxes so we can make the rich richer, and old folks we're going to cut the benefits that you've paid for all your life, break the social contract, and you Moms we're gonna send your kids off to a new ME war, and you better not even think about getting an abortion!".

IMHO running Bain capital and being/running for President are apples and oranges.

Me too. But I have seen a ton of guys like Romney. It doesn't take much. They focus on a small pictrue. Jus like investign in real estate. It does not take any broad thinking at all. Thso epeople don't even need to know the how many continents there are and lots of them don't. I make my living primarily in investment real estate. Not too many big thinkers in that group, trust me-lol. Give me an old hippie any day. <<As the Romney campaign unfolds, I am getting a very different picture of who Romney is. I thought he was the brains behind Bain. Given how he has run his campaign, I am now thinking more and more that he was the rainmaker for Bain........the front man with the name........and that is partners were the brains and managerial strength of the firm. I have no other explanation for how poorly he's run his campaign.
