President Obama condenses argument against Romney in new ad

Last edited Sat Oct 27, 2012, 12:32 PM - Edit history (1)

President Barack Obama's campaign wants voters to "remember" Mitt Romney when they cast their ballots.

But the image of Romney isn't the image the Republican presidential nominee's campaign is pitching.

Obama's latest ad is a 30-second digest of the arguments he makes against Romney.

"Mitt Romney's plan rolls back regulations on the banks that crashed our economy," the narrator says. "Medicare: voucherized. Catastrophic cuts to education. Millionaires will get one of the largest tax cuts ever, while middle class families pay more."

I'd love to know the backstory; did he create those spots all on his own (I think he did) and then get picked up by the Obama camp to VO this spot?

have already voted but early voting just started in Florida today. So now is the time for something simple and straight to the point. Voters are just worn to a nub with ads, phone calls and stuffed mailboxes with political literature. For those who will vote, whether it's in early voting, absentee voting or at their polling place on Nov. 6th, we're down to the wire. Most have made up their minds (or have known all along how they will vote) but if there are any still on the fence, this ad helps clear away the rhetoric and hype.
