It is one of the most contentious but least understood issues now before Congress -- one that does not align neatly along party lines and has split the business community.
While Mitt Romney has enjoyed relatively soft treatment from the mainstream media, a recent front-page article in the Washington Post telegraphed the cheap shots Republicans can expect in the general election.
