<<Reflecting this idea, the campaign’s new video targeting African American voters, “We Need Mitt Romney,” rewrites history by splicing together Romney’s speech with shots of a couple audience members nodding as if in agreement. While Romney received a polite standing ovation when he was done speaking, the video has been edited to make it seem like the audience rose to their feet to applaud him mid-speech>>


The NAACP or someone needs to fight this ad, or put out something denouncing it. Romney is now, officially, the biggest POS to ever run for President. Every time I think that his campaign could not get lower, it goes lower. First I was speechless, now I'm outraged. WTF is WRONG with his campaign? They are the absolute filthiest people out there...

That man will do anything, absolutely anything, to get elected.

1. This will come back to bite him on the butt

Rmoney is a dishonest lying scum bag!

[Smilo]

2. Romney has to cheat and lie

...... he has nothing else.

Please someone from the NAACP go after this pos and his campaign.

4. I would donate money for an ad that showed the clip of him standing there being booed. ;) n/t

3. This will do him a lot more harm than good

What does the Romney team think, African Americans don't know anything other than what they are told? Sorry Mitt, they aren't the brainwashed religious folks you are so used to fooling.

5. It's the media too

They shouldn't be allowed to play those lies. Maybe he can get sued by some of the NAACP members for using their image in a fraud commercial.

6. Didn't this asshat bring in his "own blacks" to the NAACP event??? You're looking at them.

7. Why don't they splice in movie clips of Charleton Heston parting the Red Sea

and then dress Mittens up in robes and a beard to make it look like it was him? I'm sure the Fundies would love it. If you're going to base your entire campaign on lies, you might as well go for broke and tell the biggest lies you can.

8. Nice try Mr. R0bme, but you fail.

Black folks aren't easily fooled into voting against our interests like the typical Teabagger is. We've been at a disadvantage for years. We're well aware of which politicians out there who have our backs, and which ones who only want to keep the elites on top and preserve racial inequality.
Fuck the G0P.

9. As President he will need Final Cut.

He'll be known as The Avid President.

10. The NAACP could put out an ad which shows Mi$$ talking, interrupted by audience

members rolling around on the floor, in tears from laughter, texting, sleeping. More than one can play at that editing game. Or just have a 12 year old address him in a video, tell him "Even kids know it's wrong to lie".

On the other hand, we need 30 million decent paying jobs, and I would like to see a plan to put that many back to work or school in a year or so, instead of waiting it out for 3 decades. None of this gets that done.

11. I don't like the let's target one race ads, it perpatuates the idea of

dividing up the country along racial lines. Also if he is going to go this route, when is his campaign going to produce the all Asian ad, or the all Hispanic ad, or the all Muslim ad. Don't those people deserve a special "We need Mitt the Twitt" Commercial.

That the real problem with Repuglicans they see all of us a certain demographic type, and not as Americans who are collectively living in the same shit.
