The Ad Using Romney's 2007 Words That Will Destroy Him. Hint: It Involves OBL
by TomP
No doubt, the Obama campaign already has something planned. I told my girl friend about this idea last week, and today Joe Biden mentioned the core point in it.
Here's my ad. As an amateur, I would open with video, if it exists, of Mitt Romney saying in April 2007 that it was not worth going after Osama Bin Laden:
TPM: Media, Right Wing Silent On Romney's Osama Gaffe, April 27, 2007
Then I'd show that famous picture of President Obama with generals, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton in the "war room" all worried as the Navy Seals went in to Pakistan.

It's not worth moving heaven and earth spending billions of dollars just trying to catch one person.

Perfect....a sister ad to highlight Mitt's "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt" would be nice as well.

It draws quite a contrast between the two, and Clinton's narration is really good.

Let the Big Dog narrate that one as well.
Romney would never have gone after OBL. The guy would calculate the risk/benefits and conclude that there was too much downside to him, personally, if the mission was not a success.
