Is Obama Campaign Focusing Too Much on Bain Capital?

I'm sure they'll get to it, but the election is referendum on who's better suited to run the economy and Romney's claiming superiority based on Bain. They've gone at it exactly the right way, I would say.

and if he does, "Romneycare" will be front and center and he'll have to explain why he thought that it was o.k. for Massachusetts but not for everybody else (and why he actually did say that it could serve as a model for the nation). I'd say that the "hard drive" issue would also feed into the narrative about his lack of transparency and accountability. There's almost nothing that he can discuss that isn't able to be attacked in some way, shape, or form.

Obama needs to keep up a full court press until November!

More Bain, more Where Are The Tax Returns.

Thank you for your concern.

Kennedy beat Romney using this playbook. Coaches who scout games will use the plays that work on winning.
The ads devastated Romney Copy success you will never go wrong.

Rmoney hasn't even been officially nominated yet.

The ads that use his own words against him are the best ones.

him now. I say keep it up.

under Romney's plan according to Brooking's Institute. We also need to push Medicare cuts hard.

The President is doing EXACTLY what he should be doing, revealing what Romney actually did there and it ain't pretty.

that is all.

To answer your question...along with the others: No. Bain is one of several Willard glass jaws that will be played throughout the next couple months to frame what a cad and loser this dude is.

What Team Obama has done masterfully is time which glass jaw to hit (there are so many of them). When Willard claims he can fix the economy cause he's a "job creator", it's time to roll out Bain again and show how many jobs he's really outsourced and how he's profited from closing businesses (especially in "swing" states). If he talks about his Olympics "leadership", then its time to roll out how many federal dollars he took to pay for it. Or if he talks about his "plans" or lack of one, hit him with his lack of candor and openess about his taxes.

The problem about Willard's tenure as governor is he's run so far from it it's not easy to tie it in. With the AHCA matter settled and it quickly fading as an issue in the election, Willardcare is no longer much of an issue...plus or minus. The band has moved on. I'm sure Team Obama will find and use things he's said or done to knock him on his heels, but it's all in due time.

I'm suspecting that much of his record and dirt is still being held back for the debates and the final push after the convention...

There are very few things Romney will be able to speak about during the upcoming debates. He can't attack Obama properly on the ACA, as it's his plan. This is one thing the doofus Santorum had correct. If the Republicans want to campaign against the health care plan, they've picked the worst person in America to do it.

That leaves his experience as a "successful businessman." I use quotes because although Mitt was personally very successful, I wouldn't characterize what he accomplished for the country as a success. And by the time these debates roll around, the Obama campaign needs to make sure that the word 'Bain' makes you so angry want to punch someone in the mouth. Romney needs to be neutered on this point.

He also needs to be pounded incessantly about his tax returns (or lack thereof) and I'm glad Reid is carrying the water so vigorously as of late.

He wants us to vote for him based solely on his years at Bain. If the Obama campaign cannot focus that, what do they focus on?
