Don't forget David Stockman's critique of Mitt-sie's business experience. Stockman said in so many words that Bain Capital was an outfit that specialized in raiding older, more settled corporations through leveraged buyouts, stripping out pension plan money and other assetts, firing workers, and saddling those companies with heavy debt. Hardly the sort of--ahem--"business experience" I think that even thoughtful Republicans (Assuming that there are any left) would want in charge to grow the economy and drastically pare down unemployment.
Quoting David Stockman might not do any good at convincing Tea-hadists or Grover Norquist Republicans. It might do a little good as far as making self-described "thoughtful Republicans" thoughtful.
