OT, but excellent view on Mitt Romney by Chimesatmidnight
Having seen these two ads for day now, I totally subscribe with Elias's view. The positive ad in particular does an excellent job at showing Mittens's phoniness.

http://chimesatmidnight.blogspot.com/2008/01/few-minutes-of-idle-television-viewing.html

A few minutes of idle television viewing in the Boston market
is enough to expose Mitt Romney's insolent moral relativism. On the one hand, he has a nice good-old folks type ad in which Willard manfully tries to pretend he is a sunny optimist with a patently phony "aw shucks" demeanor.
In his other ads he all but accuses John McCain and Mike Huckabee of baby-eating and pagan idolatry.
These adverts run one after the other on Fox 25 giving viewers a priceless window on Romney's particular type of cynical dementia.
But then he has been doing this for months, when Giuliani came up in the polls, Mitt began ranting and raving about illegal immigrants...in fact anyone who gets within five percentage points of Romney gets the same Rovian treatment time and again.
Whoever organizes the fall campaign for the democrats, ought to pay attention to this aspect of Mitt's M.O. should the former viceroy actually get nominated for President.

1. I saw it last night too.
Just awful. His ads sort of accidentally tell the story of who he really is.
