Behind the Ad: Mitt Romney not responsible at Bain?


(Another installment in our extensive "Behind the Ad" series.)

Who: The Obama-Biden campaign.

Where: Campaign website.

What's going on: Obama's campaign has a new man-on-the-street ad that takes advantage of the absurdity of Romney's comments about his position at Bain Capital between 1999 and 2002. The name of the ad is: "Mitt Romney: Chairman, CEO, and Sole Shareholder - But Not Responsible?" It features people reading from Romney's contorted statements about his status at Bain during that time and reacting to the words.

As one woman says: "That sounds very suspicious. If you're a person in charge of a business, then you should take full responsibility for your actions." That sounds about right.

It's a fairly humorous piece, something Jon Stewart might even like. The music is kind of funky too.
