Obama campaign releases fake broadcast detailing Romney's first 100 days

Not sure how I feel about this one. I think they should have alluded to unemployment going up even higher under Romney and showed unemployment back up to 10%. I like the concept but it feels like it should be even harsher than this.

What do you think? Do you think the video showcases what's at stake well? I suppose the challenge is that Romney softened his stance on some issues and pretended to be all about peace so they couldn't pretend he'd go to war with Iran or take advantage of any foreign policy blunders in a way that Romney wouldn't be able to refute as being inaccurate.

The one thing I really like about this is that Romney can't say to any of these things, "That's not fair or inaccurate" because if they do then we have an arsenal of quotes and examples claiming otherwise.

When JFK was president, i was not old enough remember how the people felt when he was assassinated... Watching all the JFK footage and stories through out the years....it just about puts you there... At the end of this video.. showing Obama not as our president made me feel the same way as when JFK was shot...
