Does Romney's Bain Capital Support Voter Suppression?

Mitt Romney was once the head honcho at Bain Capital. Bain Capital owns Clear Channel. Clear Channel includes both the radio network, and an outdoor billboard division.

On the radio side, Clear Channel syndicates Romney supporters Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck through its Premiere Networks subsidiary.

On the billboard side, Clear Channel is being accused of acquiescence to voter suppression because of billboards in minority neighborhoods allegedly containing messages intended to intimidate minority voters.
