I don't claim to have a deep understanding of Bain Capitol and leveraged buyouts. However, from what I do comprehend, it seems as though the following analogy would be logical: what Mitt Romney and Bain Capitol are to corporations, will be President Mitt Romney (with the help of Republicans) to the United States of America. Former President Bush/Cheney and crew already began the process with passing tax cuts for the wealthy, starting two wars, and passing Medicare Part D without paying for any of it and the Republicans in Congress have already continued the process of bankrupting America by opposing every proposal President Obama and the Democrats have put forth.
The Bush Administration with the assistance of a Republican led Congress, ran up the credit card. As soon as President Obama took office, he was blamed for the deficit, simply because he used more honest accounting practices. Who benefitted from those Bush policies? Bush's cronies, Bush's base. Who suffered from those policies? Everyone else.
The combination of propaganda, corporately funded lies, racism and Republican obstructionism has led us to a place where a President Romney is possible.
