Mitt Romney reveals the extent of his fortune

Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney speaks to voters in Bettendorf, Iowa on August 8.

Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney has revealed details about his vast personal fortune. The co-founder of Bain Capital is worth as much as $250 million. According to the Associated Press, "The former venture capitalist's wealth -- reported in a range of $190 million to $250 million -- is spread throughout a dizzying array of investments, that include banks, large investment management firms, foreign export credit corporations and real estate."

Romney's filing the information after two 45-day extensions that he requested, basically because he needed more time to count his money. I'm sure middle America can sympathize.

Romney's wealth and experience saving the Olympics should help him cultivate an image as a decisive leader -- someone who take charge and get things done.

But even his financial dealings are leading to more allegations of flip-flopping for the former Massachusetts Governor. He came under fire for Bain's ties with Iran after he had called for divestment from the region and explained it by saying his position applied to future dealings -- not the past.
