Devastating Anti-Romney Film Surfaces
The Root ^ | 1/12/12 | Lynette Holloway

Posted on 01/12/2012 4:07:31 PM PST by Antoninus

A film depicting GOP presidential front-runner Mitt Romney as a heartless corporate raider has emerged just as the race is heating up.

When Mitt Romney Came to Town, a film about Romney's time as CEO of Bain Capital, "is without a doubt the most serious attack on the former Massachusetts governor's campaign," the Raw Story reports.

Produced by a former top Romney strategist, the film focuses on people laid off from their jobs at four of the many companies Bain Capital essentially looted, tapping into the popular discontentment with Wall Street to label Romney a "corporate raider."

The video may be seen here: When Mitt Romney Came to Town

I don't agree with the presentation of this video which is pure appeal to emotion. However, one can't deny that it is hyper-effective, makes Romney look positively evil, and will put his campaign on the defensive for a long time.

For the record, I do think some of the things Bain did run the ragged edge of legality, not to mention being grossly unethical.

This video is already getting passed around on Facebook among my liberal friends. It will go viral. At that point, if the GOP is still stupid enough to nominate this bum, we deserve the epic defeat that's coming.

Be careful of the names you use. It sure would be awkward at the wedding to be reminded that you called your bride a whore.

That it is. But there's no denying that it's effective. Most senior citizens will take one look at that and say "no thank you."

Romney deserves to lose, though, and if his background as a corporate raider is what sinks him, then I'm ok with that.

Romney doesn’t care. The establishment GOP RINOs are going to tell him to throw the election for Jeb in 2016 anyway.

It’s amazing how much 20 million from a casino boss will do.

I agree, Michael Moore would be proud.

Now we can see why the phony OWS farce was created, they expect to run against Romney.

I bet when Romney gets elected Ft. Knox and its gold moves to Salt lake City.

I would like to suggest that you do a Google search of what Jack Welch said about Romney recently.

Exactly. Now it's up to us to throw a monkey-wrench into the works and nominate Santorum or Gingrich.

They can try. But ultimately, it's up to the voters. We need to make our voices heard in a big way this primary season!

There are already condensed versions of this on Youtube. The basic message here is going viral. When it does, Romney will be toxic and deservedly so.

It’s better that this be released now than in the fall. The Obama campaign will have a field day with this. Conservatvives need to deny Obama that opportunity.
