Romney for President, Inc.

"Mute Button" +
:30 ad from Sept. 23, 2012. 

[Music] Male Announcer: Bob Woodward, the Washington Post reporter who broke Watergate, recently wrote that during stimulus negotiations, President Obama called his Democratic leadership team, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi.  And as President Obama spoke, Nancy Pelosi hit the mute button.

Went on with their meeting, ignoring the President.  Not even listening to what he had to say.

If he cannot lead his own party, how can he lead America?

Romney (voiceover): I'm Mitt Romney and I approve this message.


Notes: The ad seeks to portray Obama as a weak leader, but it might seem a bit of "inside baseball" to some viewers.
