You Just Keep Thinking That, O-Mitt!

(Like the new nickname for Romney? It's in honor of his lies and failure to disclose fully his financial information and employment status)
 
Methinks Mitt Romney is starting to feel the heat:

WOLFEBORO, N.H. — Mitt Romney demanded Monday that President Barack Obama back away from his persistent attacks on Romney’s record at Bain Capital, advising that it would be better “if you spent some time speaking about your record.”

“What does it say about a president whose record is so poor that all he can do in this campaign is attack me,” Romney said in a nationally broadcast interview.

Obama said an interview that he has run mostly positive campaign ads but said they have not been given much attention in the media.

OMitt has gotten great mileage out of his "business experience," yet a careful examination of that experience shows a pattern of lies and misinformation designed to protect Mitt and his investors at all costs, while they rake in gobs of barely-taxable income.

As I covered back in April, even his acknowledged time at Bain capital shows a significant amount of collateral damage to real Americans and real failures for his firm.

Romney wants the best of both worlds, have his cake AND eat it too while never letting you know there's extra slices available.

President Obama is calling him out on this, and OMitt is squirming. OMitt displayed a thin skin on the campaign trail and I suspect the strategy is to rub him raw until he blows up.
