Horse$hit! Very few successful, from Bain’s point of view IE PROFITABLE, ventures where turn arounds. Many where straight up Pump & Dumps and break ups.

And your source (with data to back it up) is....? Newt is also a hypocrite for raising this argument, as he also served on an advisory board for PE firm Forstmann Little from 1999-2001. This board that Gingrich served on met twice a year in Manhattan at either the “21″ Club or at the Four Seasons, and involved potential investments, principally in the health care industry. Gingrich made personal investments in some of the companies held by Forstmann Little.

A true “Pump and Dump” is ILLEGAL!
Got any evidence?
Full disclosure, you are arguing with a Series 7 CFP.
That does not make me perfect, but I know more than the average bear.
