Trippi: Mitt Romney only has himself to blame for Team Obama's Bain trap
By Joe Trippi
The Bain Trap Mitt Romney only has himself to blame but the Obama campaign has laid it and Romney is now walking straight into it.
The day John McCain lost the 2008 election to Barack Obama (if not before), Mitt Romney knew he was going to run for president in 2012.
And in every race Romney had ever run -- for senator in 1994, for governor of Massachusetts in 2002, and for president in 2008 -- his time at Bain Capital had always been an issue. Indeed, it was Sen. Ted Kennedys use of Bain Capital and associated layoffs that ultimately crippled Romney in his attempt to take Kennedys Senate seat in 1994.
Therefore, it should have come as no surprise to Romney and his campaign team that Bain Capital would again be an issue in the general election in 2012. They knew the attacks would come, yet it appears they didnt have a plan -- other than stonewalling -- to deal with them.
