Bain attacks here to stay

Confident that their attacks are hitting home, the Obama campaign is pressing its case against Mitt Romney’s management of Bain Capital despite complaints from the GOP candidate.

The campaign Tuesday seized on a Boston Globe story that noted how Romney aides have changed the wording used to describe Romney’s activities at Bain after he bailed out to run the Salt Lake City Olympics, while still keeping an executive title at the investment firm.

In San Antonio, Texas, with the campaigning president, Obama’s spokeswoman Jen Psaki noted the story and said it raised new questions for which Team Obama wants answers.

“One other thing let me just raise since you’re all here,” she told a gaggle of reporters. “One story that came out overnight I would encourage all of you to read is a story in the Boston Globe that touches on the changing language that Mitt Romney’s team and his surrogates have used to describe Mitt Romney’s tenure at Bain. They’re starting to refer to it as that he didn’t manage the day-to-day, which raises some questions about what exactly he did do. I’m happy to provide that to anyone, but I just wanted to highlight it while we were all here.”
