although connected, one is about out-sourcing jobs and one is about hiding your money in foreign accounts and not paying taxes on it.

getting started. Now we get to learn just what kind of things Romney's been investing in. It's only going to get better.

was paid 2000-2002 for "not running Bain"—all we know know is it was at least $100K but was it millions?

And tax returns would show what Bain subsidiary companies he got money from for serving on their boards of directors, while he was "not involved in any way."

So the tax returns are the real next step in the Bain story, as well as having other points of interest.

which brings in the shipping of American jobs to India and China, the use of offshore tax havens to avoid paying U.S. taxes, etc.

It is all one very, very pretty package, pretty for the Dems that is.

In that way they are connected.

So there could be a two-pronged attack?

To give us shit. His people will let this slide, and he will lie his way around it, even in the debates.

Don't you understand all this stuff has been in front of focus groups for over a year?

You think the President is going to get better advice from people on an anonymous website full of who knows what?

Come on kentuck. I know you are smarter than this.

Geebiz.

Don

We shouldn't minimize the intelligence of DUers when it comes to political strategy.

We don't know who anyone is here.

You understand this don't you?

Don

has been working on either of these issues, for the last year. I think they are as new to it as the rest of us are. Just my opinion. It's good to think they are so competent, I guess?

its huge because it pretty much takes his best argument off the table. Everytime he mentions he has experience running a company voters will think about Bain and whether he lied or not.

It is not going away. That is not what I am saying.

Memories...Like the Dem Corners of My Mind....Mistie Water Colored Memories.......of Vietnam...

Bain 1999-2002+ and his taxes are entwined and inseparable.

Do not let up anywhere....

"Romney loves America like a tick loves a dog."

and if we keep the issues separate, the Repubs have a more difficult time obfuscating. Silly me.

Whatever...."floats our Democratic boat."

Absolutely.

Fight back...leave no prisoners.

Yep...we've been saying this for awhile.

Bain. Tax returns. Bain. Tax returns. No problem.

Rmoney's residence issues prior to becoming Guv, gee, there's a smorgasbord of goodies to chose from, an all you can stomach plate full of goodies to choose from. All of these issues are interrelated, and won't go away.

DO NOT LET UP. Do NOT give the opponent time to catch his breath. He can rebound at you with renewed strength. Keep punching, pounding, jabbing. Keep him busy - like they used to teach in my sparring class. Keep him off-balance. Keep attacking! Don't let him recover.

And there's no reason why we can't keep coming at him on Bain AND ALSO calling for him to release his tax returns. "What is he hiding?" BOTH. More than just those two lines of attack, too, for that matter. Keep hitting at him. Break him down. Sometimes it takes a lot of meat tenderizer on a tough piece of meat. Soften him up so he's such badly-damaged goods that NO amount of voter suppression will help him.

No mercy! PARTICULARLY since the bad guys are expecting just that, because Dems always cave. Why do you think they're demanding an apology? 'Cause we've backed off before. HUGE MISTAKE.

Besides, please consider: Would he let up on our guy?

now switching to the Federal Bailout of the SLC Olympics, that might be fun

Enquiring minds...

Make this campaign about Mitt Romney being untrustworthy and slimey.

Keep it up!

Rahm was great.. but I dont think he should start doing the dead fish thing again. That's a bit too much "Chicago Style".

But what it really shows is that there are multiple ways to drive this guy's numbers down right now. Good times.

The MSM are protecting him. We need to demand to know what he is hiding.

n/t

HELL. NO.

let it simmer a bit.. then in about 2 weeks turn up the heat some more...
then let it simmer a bit more.. then when their convention hits.. ROAST HIS ASS.

Just when you have your opponent on the ropes, knees buckling, his breath coming in ragged gasps, barely able to cover up against the onslaught of body blows followed by one head shot after another, walk away and let him catch his breath.


I can't believe all of the posters here who want Obama to let up on poor, poor Mitt.

Anonymous website and all.

Don

When you have others reacting to events, they no longer control them, they are just a respondent to someone else's narrative.

When your opponent is focused on the full-on frontal assault, have your surrogates attack with a completely different issue from the flank.

Never let the other guy get his feet back underneath him.

Never explain, move forward to the next hammer blow.

DO NOT LET UP FOR ANY REASON.

But I bet you knew that already.

Don

essay notwithstanding), but I think the appropirate metaphor here is "on the ropes".

Bam! Pow! KA-POW!

Idea is to score a TKO before the Convention. I actually prefer that Mitt remain the Repig nominee to help Dems out with down-ballot races by suppressing Repig turnout.

The income taxes/financials and the Bain non-experience go toward showing his bogus "business experience" that supposedly indicates he's a job creator and will be great for the economy. As well as his character and honesty, and patriotism.
