This is freaking awesome. Run this ad 24/7!!!!!!!
TPM:
The Obama campaign has a new ad set to air in Florida, Ohio, and Virginia tying Mitt Romneys' remarks decrying the 47 percent of Americans who pay no income taxes to his running mate's proposal to privatize Medicare. Medicare has been a frequent flashpoint for the campaign, but the latest spot may be the most brutal to come out of the Obama camp yet.
Rough transcript:
Victims.
Dependent.
That's what Mitt Romney called 47% of Americans, including people on Medicare.
But what about his plan for you?
Romney would replace guaranteed benefits with a voucher system.
Seniors could pay $6,000 dollars more a year.
A plan AARP says would undermine Medicare.
You're no victim.
You earned your benefits.
Don't let Mitt Romney take them away.
