I wonder what Hillary thinks of a couple of romney ads that are out there?

There are now two different ads in which Hillary was quoted as saying "Barack Obama you have a lot of explaining to do!", which were recorded during the 2008 primaries. In both ads, romney flat out calls Obama a liar, particularly the new second one where he gets REAL defensive about the Bain Capital thing.
I live in Iowa, which is considered a "battleground" state, and it is quite possible that these ads are only running in "battleground" states at this time.
Hillary did say those things, but I wonder if she knows they are running and if so, when she is going to rip romney a new one? Because she is far and away tougher than romney and likely can get just as nasty, if not nastier should the situation call for it. And it seems that the situation calls for it.
I will look around you tube in a while to see if I can find the ads talked about in this thread but right now, it's time for ribs.

You can ask that same question of Newt for Mittens. You do what you can to win. As you can see southernyankeebelle Jul 2012 #3

She can't comment on domestic politics.

So at the time, she could comment on anything she wanted to.

neither of them won. So it really doesn't make a difference.
