The Obama campaign attacked Mitt Romney in an email to supporters today. Calling the former Governor a “corporate raider,” Obama campaign manager Stephanie Cutter had harsh words about Romney’s time at Bain Capital.

Cutter’s memo channels parties ranging from former Bain Capital colleagues to business juggernaut Warren Buffet in framing Romney’s time at the private-equity firm.

Between now and November the American people will decide whether to respond to this crisis by electing a corporate raider who profited from – and promises to restore – the conditions that caused it, or re-electing a President fighting to level the playing field for American businesses, restore fairness for consumers and help the middle class reclaim a sense of economic security that will benefit the entire economy. That’s what’s on trial, not “free enterprise.”
