5. M$M isn't reporting on all of the Bain inconsistencies, just that Romney left Bain in 1999

And that Obama is using Bain as a shiny thing to distract from something negative about Obama. Some Republicans do seem to be distancing themselves from Romney though.

Maybe there is more talk about strategy, with some reserve because it looks like rough sailing, but this Bain thing, as much fun as it is for us, it really isn't getting out there.

That might change, but after the convention, Romney and company will have $$$$$$$$$$ to make Mitt look better than Obama and Rove probably thinks he can still do it.
