...but there is a strong difference between attacking capitalism and attacking poor business practices.

What bad business practices? I won't vote for Romney, but saying he wasn't incredibly successful as the head of Bain Capital denies the truth.

I haven’t seen Perry, once, ever attack anyone for being “too rich”, but rather for being unethical and incompetent.

I was a huge Perry supporter until his "vulture capitalist" crap.

What exactly was so unethical that Bain Capital did?

The charge against Romney is that they purposely purchased businesses not to “save” them, but to squeeze them dry, pile them with more debt, and then sell their assets for a large profit in as little time as possible.

There is nothing illegal with that. But, it certainly isn’t a “pro-business” model of management.

I know I’m sick already of hearing people claim Newt and Perry were “attacking capitolism.” They are not attacking capitolism, just Romney’s brand of capitolism.

If you actually want to know a lot more about Romney and Bain Capitol, plus a lot more about Romney personally, read the article in Vanity Fair on the newsstands this week.

One thing is for sure, Perry is the only really likeable candidate in the race, icing on the foundation of his record on jobs and values. I’m no fair weather supporter.
