http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/10/22/biden-we-are-seeing-the-remaking-of-mitt-romney/(snip)
Case in point: as Biden campaigned in Ohio Monday, he referenced a claim first leveled by President Obama - that Romney's $5 trillion tax plan amounts to a "sketchy deal."
"As vice president, it's not my job, nor am I inclined to correct the president," Biden joked. "But in this case I am. Romney's plans aren't sketchy - they're Etch-a-Sketchy."
And then, Biden added a biting twist.
"They're like shaking that little tablet out there. It's underway guys. We are seeing the remaking of Mitt Romney right before our eyes."

It is a criticism specific to Romney, rather than a bland, generic cliche, and it needs to be repeated at every opportunity.

the meme came direct from Romney's camp.

because every one of them has been victim of a bait-and-switch and every one them has executed a bait-and-switch. that is american capitalism... the best hustler wins.
