Anyone see the ad about Romney saving some lost girl?

I just caught a glimpse of it - I guess it has been around for awhile, Huffington post has a better description of the ad than I do, I can't stomach the thought of finding the actual ad

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/17/mitt-romney-melissa-gay_n_1355317.html

Basically some girl got lost at a rave party in NYC and Romney committed all of Bain resources to find her.

I just found it to be a very desperate ad so late in the game.

If I was mitt rMoney I'd take the opportunity and get on one of my private jets and fly as far away as I could get. He doesn't have the mental capacity to take this defeat, if he is defeated, well. I won't call the election early so I have to add the caveat of If he is defeated.

Obama is gracious and he can take it if it is he that is defeated, I don't think that but won't call it due to the, count, chicken and hatch and all that

The other one that gets about as much air time is the laughable one claiming Obama does not reach across
the aisle to repubs.

Lying, criminal fascists assholes. I can't take it anymore. Can't wait till it is over and they are left to eat
their expensive words.
