Best gems I found so far:
-Romney called for New York's pension fund to divest from companies that did business with Iran at a time when Bain Capital owned a company with offices in Tehran (p.77)
-He loved raising fees as Governor, of course, but gave a free pass for rapists; in 2003 he tried to veto a $75 Sex Offender registration fee but was overturned by the legislature. He also attempted several vetoes of funding increases for the sex offender registry even after the state learned it had entirely lost track of a third of MA's "high risk sex offenders" (p.131).
Also apparently there's a video of Romney saying, "You'll have to allow me the opportunity to change my view on that," which is a perfect soundbite for an ad on his flip-flopping.
