1. Is Obama going there?

I know Romney went all "Green energy has lost 90% of it's investments" (not true) on the President last debate.

My heart says that would be sweet to bring up - my head isn't so sure.

Any more info?

This, like everything else returns to the subject of Mitt's taxes.
He has NOT provided even a year of returns in complete format.

...because Romney would have an excellent reply: that he wasn't at Bain at the time. Then we'd have to argue the "well, he still benefitted" claim (which sounds a lot weaker to most people), while Romney would be able to frame the whole thing as "proof" Obama will "lie" to attack him.

Sensata is better brought up in other, more indirect ways than having the President challenge him on it during a nationally-televised debate. The chances of it backfiring are just too high.

Sensata would be a fun way to help Rmoney explain his time at and relationship with Bain. I want to hear him explain how he was and wasn't the head of Bain at the same time. And of course I want to hear about all the great "job producing" work that venture capitalists take part in. What a hoot! To hear Rmoney talk about venture capitalism, you'd think it was some sort of altruistic adventure; not the chop shops they really are.

Blech! Rmoney disgusts me!

of the actions his own former company is doing to those folks in Freeport, and how he will discourage other companies from shipping our jobs to China when his own (former) company does it and profits.
