(31,849 posts)earlier this week and noticed the same thing. But I also noted that the President Obama ad running was the one talking about President Obama's Jobs Bill and Congress' refusal to pass it ... telling the audience to get Congress to pass it.
It seems a smart strategy:
You say I don't know what I'm doing. I counter with the experts say I do and you are stopping me.
