The Obama campaign's latest ad takes you on an offshore vacation to hot button destinations like Mexico, China, Switzerland, India, Bermuda, and the Cayman Islands while being serenaded by the man with the smoothest voice in America, Mitt Romney.
"O beautiful for spacious skies," Mitt croons on stage, footage taken from a our first stop, a January event in Florida. It cuts to a shot of the inside of a factory. "In Business, Mitt Romney's firms shipped jobs to Mexico," the L.A. Times headline reads. Cut to the outside of a red brick factory. "And China," the headline adds. The inside of a boardroom. "As Governor, Romney outsourced jobs to India," says the Boston Globe. A lake with a Swiss flag. "He had millions in a Swiss account," the ABC News headline reads. A beautiful shot of palm trees and the ocean. "Tax havens like Bermuda...," says Vanity Fair. Waves splash on the beach. "And the Cayman Islands," the ABC News headline reads. "America! America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood, from sea to shining sea!" Mitt sings proudly in the background. Black screen. "Mitt Romney's not the solution," it says. "He's the problem." Mic drop.
