Why does Sensata matter? BECAUSE THIS IS ROMNEY'S BUSINESS RECORD [View all]

People will try to link it to a CEO doing the job, or other political figures, etc.

WE NEED TO MAKE CLEAR that the reason why this is such a big deal is not that Bain is outsourcing, but that Romney became a "successful businessman" through outsourcing, and that this is what outsourcing DOES.

I'm just saying this because there were some naysayers on Reddit and twitter not getting why this matters.
