Male Announcer: Vice President Joe Biden said it…

Biden (clip from debate yesterday): “...we don’t need more M1 tanks...”

Announcer: …and in Lima, Ohio, we heard it loud and clear.

Biden (clip from debate yesterday): “...we don’t need more M1 tanks...”

Male Announcer: While the world grows more hostile and unstable every day, the White House wants to take away one of the most vital weapons in our arsenal--made right here in Ohio. Giving our troops the tools they need just isn’t a priority for Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Their own budget would shut down America’s only M-1 tank plant.

Biden (clip from debate yesterday): “...we don’t need more M1 tanks...”

Male Announcer: As an Ohioan, you know that’s not just an attack against our ability to defend our freedom. It’s also an attack against our jobs and our way of life. Two attacks. Which one is worse?

Romney: I’m Mitt Romney, I'm running for president and I approve this message.

Male Announcer: Paid for by Romney for President, Incorporated.

Male Announcer: Remember, Joe Biden said it.

Biden (clip from debate yesterday): “...we don’t need more M1 tanks...”

Notes: Is repeating the clipped quote four times enough?

In context the quote is, "...look, the military says, we need a smaller, leaner Army. We need more special forces. We need — we don't need more M1 tanks. What we need is more UADs." [unmanned attack drones]
