The elusive truth about Mitt Romney's time at Bain Capital

Friday, Romney blitzed through five TV interviews to charge that questions raised by the Obama campaign were "ridiculous … beneath the dignity of the presidency and of his campaign."

Will any of this make any difference?

The Obama campaign hopes it will as it continues to chip away with new TV ads and statements, and it may be having an effect.

The Pew Research Center reports that despite the stagnant economy and broad dissatisfaction with national conditions, Obama holds “a significant lead” over Romney – 50 to 43 percent among registered voters nationwide.

“The latest national survey … finds that Romney has not seized the advantage as the candidate best able to improve the economy,” Pew reported this week. “In fact, he has lost ground on this issue over the past month.”
