No no. This can’t be. Bain Capital is Romney’s firm. They are evil. They buy companies and kick people with cancer off of health insurance. How can A good Democrat such as Deval Patrick be associated with this evil 1% investment firm???

How much money he be make? How much of that is because he was governor and how much is due to his competence at the job?

There is a ruling elite that takes care of itself and does nothing for the common herd.
