Saw Mitt Romney's much ballyhooed campaign commercial last night...

bumptious nonsense is what it amounted to.
Much of the advert is given over to a convoluted explanation of his plan to sign a budget that is fixed a 1% below the rate of inflation or some such rubbish, I couldn't figure it out and I have a master's degree, what the ordinary bloke in NH makes of it can be easily imagined.
The rest of the commercial was full of truculent threats to veto bad ideas and bad budgets citing his experience as Governor of Massachusetts where he supposedly eight-sixed all kindsa stuff.
Truth is, the legislature pretty much over-rode Mitt's vetoes at their leisure...they knew he hadn't the votes to sustain his veto and he knew it as well, this where our current health insurance law came from.
As an advertisement, I give it a C-plus, the narration was confusing, the threats laughable however the footage of Romney made him look shiny and pretty enough to get some traction up in NH.
We will see how well he wears over time.
