No sir. I have honored every debt in my life and my word as well. If Obama wins, he gets a good dinner and the admission that I was wrong. So no, I'm not allergic to crow. I'm a trader Brass, I can handle being wrong.
I don't like the big words thing. As if anyone cares. I appreciate good, solid communication, misspellings, abuse of their, they're, and there, all of it. Quick typing typos, no worries. Get what you want to say out there.
I do agree with Mr. Maverick about the fact that words matter. One does tend to cringe a bit when seeing or hearing tacky verbiage, and we generally do judge a bit. Take a minute, read what you wrote, but never stop writing when you're on a roll.

Truth is, I have no real problem with equity companies buying, streamlining, and selling companies. That's needed sometimes. I was just unaware of the extent of Bain Capital's involvement.
Do they really have controlling interest in Toys R Us, Warner Bros., and Staples? Guitar Center? Really?
edit: How much ownership does Romney have these days? Just curious, any idea?
