Unfortunately for Mitt Romney, most voters don't have the time to research Bain Capital the way posters on this forum have. What voters see is a guy who said "I like being able to fire people", "I don't care about poor people", "corporations are people, my friends", "let Detroit go bankrupt".

I have to agree with Rick Santorum who said "Romney is the worst candidate in the country to run for president" or words to that effect. Santorum was speaking about Romney's health care bill, but it also applies to Romney's business experience, which is solely what Romney wants to run on...not his experience as governor. It's just too close to the 2008 financial meltdown to put a candidate out there who is the epitome of the Gordon Gecko image many detest.
