I just don't think the point resonates as much as you seem to. When I hear it I think to myself, was it illegal? No? Then did it save him money? Yes? Would I do it then? Probably? Okay then.

If I were the Obama campaign I would hammer away at ads with Mitt saying one thing when he was previously running then him flip flopping now and ask "doesn't a president need convictions"? There is so much film on Romney from the gazillion times he's run for office that this would be easy and a slam dunk. But I would sprinkle some bain/tax shelter in there too. But for me its close to a non issue.

I actually respect how successful the dude was. It's not my thing, but then neither is golf and I'm still shocked by how good Tiger Woods is. The guy knows business/finance.... I should be turned off by this?
