From the moment Mitt Romney threw his hat in the Republican nomination ring, Barack Obama's reelection campaign has been itching to deliver attacks on the candidate over Bain Capital. They have been teeing up this strategy for months. President Obama began sounding the class warfare alarm last September, and the left followed by rolling out the Occupy movement to attack “income inequality” and demonizing the so-called One Percent. No one could have doubted in which category Romney would be counted.

The first hint that an attack on private equity might backfire came during the Republican primary. ....

The Fiscal Times

The Fiscal Times (TFT) is an English-language digital news, news analysis and opinion publication based in New York, NY and Washington, D.C., founded and initially funded in 2010 by Peter G. Peterson, founder of the Peter G. Peterson Foundation. Peterson, a billionaire investment banker, has long advocated restrictions on entitlement programs and deficit reduction, causing some liberal advocacy groups and analysts to charge that there is an inherent bias in Fiscal Times reporting. The Fiscal Times website launched in February 2010.

The publication -- through core content channels policy and politics, business and economy, and life and money -- focuses on the impact of fiscal policy on business and consumers and on how business and consumer behavior influences government fiscal policy.

1. The OP (Amelia) cites "The Fiscal Times" (thefiscaltimes.com) as the source for her assertions. "The Fiscal Times" is yet another example of billionaire businessmen using their money and power to exert their influence on America's political and economic agenda.

2. Casino mogul and 78-year-old multi-billionaire Sheldon Adelson (America's eighth richest man) bankrolled the Gingrich Campaign.

3. Seventy-one year old Foster Friess, a Christian billionaire and founder of Friess Associates provided much of the money to finance the Santorum Campaign. Friess is best known for hisrecent "bottle of aspirin between a woman's legs as a means of birth-control" comment.

4. Mitt Romney, who contributed $45 million of his own money as an unsuccessful GOP presidential in 2008, has a whole stable of millionaires and billionaires contributing directly to his campaign or his PAC. Romney had the financial resources to far outspend his Republican opponents and overwhelm them with negative campaigns.

5. J. Joe Ricketts, the founder and former CEO and former chairman of TD Ameritrade and listed among Forbes Magazine's 400 wealthiest Americans, was reportedly willing to provide $10 million for the 2012 presidential campaign against Obama. His name was linked to a recent proposal to resurrect the President's link with Rev. Jeremiah Wright - until the media exposed it.
