1. Stay with the tax thread....

It's a winner. Romney's not very likable to begin with. Pointing out that he pays low taxes only adds to that.

[trailmonkee]

4. imho, the campaign should be spending half their video and tv ad dollars repeating this one...

simple narrative is hard to come by... this is a gift!

[Cha]

12. Yes, I like it.. It's a thing

of beauty in its simplicity! Straight to the center of the problem with "Money Boo Hoo".

2. My spidey sense keeps tingling. I think Mitt Romney was part of the Tax Amnesty Program.

Too bad we don't have the proof to nail his hide to the wall!

3. What's crazy is....why hasn't a reporter just asked him?

I mean it's a rather obvious question that should be asked.

[BlueStreak]

10. It is maddening. They come up with all sorts ot impertinent questions but won't ask the obvious one

Make Romney go on record about the Amnesty program. If he lies about it, some whistle-blower will come forward.

We will know instantly whether he claimed amnesty. If he did the amnesty, we will hear that robotic laugh of his.

7. Yikes! And to Cali, media are steering wide from anything too specific concerning his taxes.

It's like the elephant in the room no one is allowed to talk about. Why are they covering for him?

trailmonkee - that is one hell of an article!!! Thanks!

16. That is exactly what I suspect also. (eom)

[Speck Tater]

6. Bingo. Keep slamming that issue home. nt

[nevergiveup]

8. Best ad I have seen this year.

Start playing this ad in Missouri, Arizona, Tennessee, South Carolina, Indiana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Georgia and Montana and some red states will possibly turn pink or even light blue.

[Indpndnt]

18. And Texas, too! Bill Clinton's ad plays here a lot. This one would be a perfect complement to it.

[nevergiveup]

21. Absolutely

Sorry, I forgot Texas.

[Third Doctor]

9. This ad asks the same question I did

Mitt slammed 47 percent of the population on taxes (which was a wrong estimation) while he hides his own tax returns.

[Cha]

13. They don't call him Mitt, the 2 Pronged

Lying Head, Hypocrite for Nothin'!

[neverforget]

11. Excellent commercial!

[ChisolmTrailDem]

19. I've been waiting on this ad...

As soon as I saw the clandestinely recorded Romney dissing the 47% as paying no taxes, I knew that I wasn't smarter than OFA and if I picked on up it that they had to also.

He's very comfortable talking to those rich leechers about the taxes us proles "don't pay" while they are doing everything they can to pay as little in taxes as possible.

The nerve.

20. and the pubic has enough basic ed on this that it only need 2b 30 secs

[Hutzpa]

14. Hey, what happen to the swagger walk?

C'mon OFA need to put that back on.

17. Great job
