Here’s Anderson Cooper discussing Bain on CNN

(skip to about 2:30 past all the “he said/she said” reporting to the analysis.)
This is a good time for Mitt to make the rounds on MSM networks. The Bain attacks have gone too far, Mitt has a strong case and the MSM is going to be fairly receptive. I think the latest round of Bain attacks is going to work in his favor. He gets to skip all the serious questions, policy stuff and gets to talk a lot about the factual inaccuracies of the attacks.

I watched the whole thing.

Gergen, after practically apologizing for being a big Bain booster, said the more attention this gets, the better it is for the Obama campaign. Then he attacks Obama for playing “rough politics”, and says, “is this what we were promised?” What a goofball.

I don’t think the facts matter. Romney’s going to look bad for having a complicated, extremely rich man’s set of problems, whether he’s at fault for them or not.
