Now that Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry are attacking Romney with populist critiques of his tenure at Bain Capital, National Review has an editorial today defending Mitt Romney and his brand of capitalism:

But to abominate Mitt Romney for having been a success at the business of investing in struggling American companies, connecting entrepreneurs with capital and producers with markets, is foolish and destructive. Republicans ought to know better, and the fact that Gingrich et al. apparently do not is the most disturbing commentary on the state of the primary field so far.

Club for Growth defended Romney yesterday. We’ll see what other conservative groups come out of the woodwork to support Romney.
