Can I get a witness?

It's not surprising that Bain Capital invested heavily in corporations shifting jobs overseas during Willard Romney's tenure there--republicans are great at wiping their lips with a napkin while swearing to you it was somebody else who stole your lunch.  What is surprising is that it was a traditional media outlet, The Washington Post, that reported it.

And now my question is...does anyone outside of the liberal blogs pick this up and question Romney's entire economic message?  Or does it die on the Daily Kos et al as other media outlets let it wither and fade away so that uninformed Independents go to the polls believing Willard really has a plan that will be better than Obama and the Democrats?

Probably know the answer to that one, but a fellow can hope.

Amateur Hour

Wow--how to do major damage to your political bona fides in just a few short minutes.  Well done, Mayor Cory Booker!  At the start of today, you were a rising star in the Democratic Party, but after appearing on Meet the Press and calling President Obama's attack ads on Mitt Romney's record at Bain Capital "nauseating" you've pretty much lost the base--permanently.  You can't be a progressive on some issues and not on the ones that matter most--mainly looking after the 99%--and expect our support.  That's exactly the problem we have with the "Liberal" media.

I have no doubt you'll probably move on to bigger and better things--but today you've cost yourself a lot of money over the years (the base donates) and quite a few votes (the base shows up in huge numbers).  But even more important, you've lost their hearts.  We fight a lot harder when we believe.

Nice try on walking back those "nauseating" comments you made--when you end up as republican fodder for Willard's campaign, it's way too little, way too late.
