Don't call him Romney or Mittens. His name is Bain.

People across the country need to know about what Romney did to destroy jobs and businesses as head of Bain Capital.

Make sure that no amount of puffery by the corporate media will paper over the fact that Mitt Romney is nothing more than Gordon Gekko wearing magic underwear.

Presidential Candidate Bain he is.

"President Obama’s chief campaign strategist David Axelrod today on “This Week” honed his two-pronged attack on GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney, insisting the former Bain Capital CEO’s record and shifting policy positions will undermine his general election appeal.

“Frankly I don’t think bringing a Bain mentality to this economy — to running this economy — makes him a strong candidate,” Axelrod told me. “I don’t think shifting and moving around on positions – fundamental positions – is one that people are going to embrace.”

“Trust is a big issue in the presidency,” he said. “I think there’s a big trust issue here.”


During the ABC News New Hampshire debate Saturday, Romney’s Republican rivals tried to level similar attacks, taking particular aim at Bain’s record on creating and eliminating jobs."

It should start sticking if we use it regularly, and it resonates with a lot of people.
