The opening round of Monday’s Fox News debate in Myrtle Beach, SC was all about Mitt Romney’s record at Bain Capital. Newt Gingrich took some swipes at Romney’s time at the company, but it was Rick Perry who really stepped it up, defending his claim that Romney’s business career was “vulture capitalism” and calling on Romney to release his tax returns.

“We cannot fire our nominee in September,” Perry said to Romney, who’s said he won’t release his tax records yet. “We need to know now.”
