The Democratic National Committee released its second television ad of the 2012 campaign Saturday morning, a broadside against Mitt Romney, who polls show is the frontrunner and who is skipping the Ames poll and campaigning in New Hampshire this weekend.

The 30-second ad uses footage from Mr. Romney at the Iowa state fair on Thursday in which he responded to a heckler by saying that “corporations are people, my friend.” The Democratic ad ends with the phrase: “Mitt Romney: Putting Corporations First.”

6. The Democratic Party's own record since 2008

when they started with majorities in both houses + the oval office - is so bankrupt that they have to resort to negative campaigning even before the start of the election.

9. Oh yeah, go negative.

It's all we have and most, if not all of these dumbfuck candidates have said or done such stupid things. And they don't think the internetz will call them on it.

12. Maybe the DNC thinks that if they point out the obvious folly of evil republicans

No body will notice the complicity of the corporately owned venal democrats who will do nothing about it besides giving lip service to how much we need to change things.

And when their in the position to bring about change, they will say, don't expect change for the better until hell freezes over...

Because as long as there's one or more, bought and paid for, delusional psychotic republicans that hold political office.

They will somehow stop the bought and paid for democrats from doing anything that remotely resembles being fair to the working class.
