Showing Original Post only (View all)Should Democrats put the Bain issue on the back burner for a bit? [View all]
And focus on the tax return issue? Keep them off balance. I'm sure they have been working on their response to Bain.
A new mantra should be, 'What is he hiding??"
Nobody, Democrats or Republicans, believe someone should run for President and not have their finances transparent. It is simply not acceptable.
Instead of talking about Bain for a few days, we should be asking, "What is he hiding". Anyway, the Bain story has been vented fairly well at this moment and there is not a lot more to gain from it at this time. Give it a couple of weeks and bring it back up. Keep them on the defensive.

But strategically, wouldn't it be better for Democrats to have it as two issues?

Hell no. His business experience is what he claims to run on ... so let's make him run on it.

Use them both at the same time, for once why don't WE build the national rhetoric.

No, I'd continue to hammer the everloving fuck out of him on both issues, "Chicago Style."

I really don't know. I imagine they have a strategy. But like another poster said, they're related.
