The Obama campaign spent less that a $100,000 on the Bain roll out

And Bain is about the only thing I have heard about on cable TV all week long.

If a couple of Dems had not "misspoke", about Bain the media would still be talking about Rev. Wright.

Dems are learning how to play this game.

And the Bain stuff will keep coming.

I'm sure the media will tell us Romney's term as governor is "off limits"

If you can spend a little cash and get those returns, you are doing OK.

If you can follow up and keep something like that in the news for more than a week, you could potentially knock it out of the ball park

Since VP Biden either jumped the gun or tested the waters which ever you wish to call it, it seems each time the Republicans get what should be a good talking point something pushes Obama back to the limelight.

It seems for May at least Obama is really keeping control of the news cycles. But, unlike Rmoney which even the good turns bad, with Obama the bad turns good.
