?

The mark of the 2012 Presidential race.

What?
Who?
WHEN?
How?
Why?

Time runs forever and everyone has answer to it.

WHEN? is the question that Romney has to answer and even if he can answer it can be extended. Like- "Yes okay that ended but what happened BEFORE that?"

Keep the "Bain" in the news as long as possible.

In this (Fox News driven) media world it is important to keep a topic afloat for as long as possible. It will never be answered and it floats around the head of the product (Romney) every time you see the product. The "birthers" have literally made a living off of this and the GOP has been able to make guns and abortion issues that never end.

Short term - keep the ? out there. ? has no answer.....unless you allow it to have an answer like WHERE Obama was born.

and how much that "hobby" costs. I have acquaintances who keep horses and it is extremely expensive at the level Ann Romney trains. For the richie rich Romneys, it's chump change but for all the rest of us this is beyond our comprehension to spend this amount for a hobby. By the end of summer, the Romneys will be branded as out of touch, clueless and incapable of leading the nation.
