Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney unveiled his first television ad of the election cyle this week in New Hampshire, kicking off a major media push in the state.

Democrats on Tuesday took issue with the part of the ad that quotes Obama saying, "If we keep talking about the economy, we're going to lose," pointing out that Romney took the quote out of context. Obama used the line in 2008, but he was talking about his opponent, Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain, not his own campaign. What Obama did say at the time, was this: "Senator McCain's campaign actually said, and I quote, 'If we keep talking about the economy, we're going to lose.'" In response, the Democratic National Committee slammed Romney, calling him "a serial deceiver."

1. The political analists on CNN think that Romney did it to bait Obama so he could

get into a dust-up with the President and be perceived as already fighting Obama. Obama took the bait.

2. probly won't get much media attention since it shows Romney tolerates naked lying to voters

I'm sure media will keep this on the down-low. Of course, on the other hand Republicans like it when candidates lie to them and show utter contempt for them.

3. Good observation. It seems the GOPers feel when facts fail them it's quite alright to lie.

When 'called' on it they just sortof laugh it off, as if to say: "what the fuck"
