Bain Capital contributed more money in last six years to Democrats
I look forward to the spin from the left and the MSM (pardon the redundancy) over this.
Democrats have accepted more political donations than Republicans from executives at Bain Capital, complicating the left’s plan to attack Mitt Romney for his record at the private equity firm.
…
The sums collected by Democrats from managing partners and other senior executives at Bain could hamper the Democratic message that Romney is a corporate raider who does not care about workers, charges based on his record as CEO of Bain.Democrats could be forced to justify attacking Bain — which specializes in buying companies and boosting profitability, often by laying off workers — while accepting campaign funds from the same executives who made the cost-cutting decisions.
“They’re going to have a difficult time explaining why they’re padding their war chest with contributions from the same executives that they’re accusing of hurting jobs,” said Brian Walsh, a spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
Right. Because Democrats are loathe to be shameless hypocrites, right?

Obama’s newly appointed OMB director is a guy from Bain. Fortunately, his willing accomplices in the media will overlook that information while crucifying Romney.
Comment by Kanaka Girl | January 19, 2012
Yeah, they will have a HUGE problem with this, since the media NEVER buries any story that would be negative toward the democrat party, right? Uh…right? Hello…….?
Wow, I hear lots of crickets chirping.
Comment by Kevin | January 19, 2012
Yep. While Newt and Perry (we hardly knew ye) popped Romney over the issue, I think all that did was prep Romney for how to respond to it in the general election, should he become the nominee. But with this story, the left would be well served to leave it alone. But they won’t. They’re too stupid.

you’re racist for saying that Crush! I have NO idea how, but then, the left never needs reasons, they just break out the label….you racist! Lol

After watching Newt handle another liberal “reporter”, at the beginning of last night’s debate, I may change my mind about him. This makes at least 2 so-called mediators that he has had to verbally spank and again drew another standing ovation from the crowd! I am certain he can handle Obama as well because Nobama can’t have his Teleprompter on stage!
Comment by tnjack | January 20, 2012
I like his ability to hit back…I just DON’T like what he believes, specifically that FDR is the greatest president of the 20th century? That his foreign policy would best resemble Woodrow Wilson? A great speaker is already in the White House – my fear is that a Progressive will win the nomination.
That being said, I love the way this guy handles the media. Newt would dismantle much of what Obama has built, so even if I may disagree with his alarming view of who the best president of the 20th century was…Obama STILL remains the enemy of freedom and the US Constitution. If Newt wins the nomination, I’m totally voting for him because he is NOT Obama!!!!
