I am NOT bashing Bain, but come on, the below link is how Romney himself explains Bain. So will he Bain other private companies as president?

Hopefully not. Until Obama, it was understood that the authority of an American President did not extend to dictating the affairs of corporations.

Of course, if the Gingrich surge continues, the point may be moot.

Have no problem with Bain (or making money) it's how Romney handled the subject. He stated repeatedly that he “left” Bain in 1999. Today he is still making more than fifteen million dollars/year from Bain......It all depends on what the meaning of “left” is.......ala Clinton.

Why didn't he initially say I stepped down from CEO of Bain, or although I still make money from Bain, but I no longer am on the board of directors etc.?

Instead he said he “left” implying he was no longer connected to Bain.

Why the manipulation?

BTW are you aware that the Huntsman fortune is intertwined with Bain and that Jon Huntsman and he are related?....Why not be transparent? Was Huntsman a "straw candidate" in NH? Why?
