Outsourcing is a reality but voters in parts of the country that have lost jobs to it don’t want to hear about a prospective president who may have benefited from them losing their jobs. That’s the problem Romney has. It’s one thing arguably to support policies that result in outsourcing, it’s another to be part of a company that benefits from it. I’m no protectionist but I understand why people don’t like outsourcing.

I agree, it’s a dirty word and a political hot potato. The claims and accusations can be politically effective regardless of truth or economic reality.
