According to the latest campaign ad from the Obama camp, “Mitt Romney will say anything to get elected.” Obama said that Romney is “launching a false attack,” for using quotes from Obama’s speeches. The ad claims Romney is misquoting the President, and prove it by using another quote from the same speech. They show Romney quoting Obama by saying, “if you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.” According to the White House transcripts, that is what he said. The ad then claims, “That’s not what he said,” and play a clip of Obama saying, “If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life.” Then at about the 40 second spot of the ad, they use the same quote they accuse Romney of making up.

According to President Obama’s campaign team Mitt Romney has, “Tax Havens. Offshore accounts. Carried Interest. Mitt Romney has used every trick in the book. Romney admits that over the last two years he’s paid less than 15% in taxes on $43 million in income. Makes you wonder if some years he paid any taxes at all.” They ad, “We don’t know because Romney has released just one full year of his tax returns. And won’t release anything before 2010. Mitt Romney: You know what, I’ve put out as much as we’re gonna put out. What is Mitt Romney hiding?”
