The Romney campaign’s retort is to cite Staples, Sports Authority and Dominos.

Problem is, is that they intentionally leave out the job losses from other companies with which Bain was involved and the Romney campaign’s tally is based on current figures, not the period when Romney worked at Bain.

I think there is a concerted effort to distort, and there’s a sizable bunch on this forum, probably as much as 40%, who are now attacking Newt ( and Perry), for even bringing the matter up.

good investigative journalism is lacking here. For example, true or false were the Staples, Sports Authority etc at the beginning of Romney’s tennure there? Then the vulture capitalism come later?
