In another sign that Mitt Romney could be plagued by stories about Bain Capital, Internet researcher Andrew Kaczynski made waves with a 2003 article about Bain offshoring jobs from Massachusetts, during Romney’s time as Governor.

Though the piece does not mention Romney by name, as he had left Bain in 1999, there is perhaps still political potency in the fact that he continued to receive dividends from the company.

And as we have seen from the pile-on over his comment today, about being able to fire people who provide him a service — a reference to individuals picking their insurance companies, not to Bain — his opponents are giving him no quarter.
