The Big Bird ad stays.
Obama campaign adviser Robert Gibbs said Wednesday he didn't know of any plans to take down the controversial ad featuring the famous feathery star, despite a request by Sesame Workshop.
Gibbs made the comment on NBC's "Today" show, a day after campaign officials said they were reviewing Sesame Workshop's appeal.
The satirical TV ad featured a menacing voiceover warning of Mitt Romney's anti-Big Bird agenda, playing off the Republican nominee's debate claim that he wants to cut funding to PBS.
"Big, yellow, a menace to our economy. Mitt Romney knows it's not Wall Street you have to worry about, it's Sesame Street," the voiceover says. "Mitt Romney, taking on our enemies no matter where they nest."

Confirmed: they are now officially in a Death Spiral.
Caused by the fact that they are just too damned arrogant to admit that they could possibly be wrong about anything and change course.
Enjoy golf on Oahu, Barry.
Obama: FU Big Bird
Everytime that Big Bird ad runs, another undecided or Independent voter decides to vote for Romney.
Their voice has shrunk and the only thing most people know is "Sesame Street" and there is not a channel out there that would not pick up that show, and we all know it.

So obama thinks BB is our enemy! No one said BB is our enenmy - as usual, obama is pointing the finger as anything but HIM! Obama seems him as an enemy because he CAN pay his own way and he built it on his own!
Actually, it just might be copyright infringement ...
That’s okay. I say Give him the bird. Let’s move on.
This is nearly unbelievable, given the howling of their liberal base about the ad. You know that they do some type of focus group testing of these things before they air, so that begs the question, “who did they focus this on? what group are they trying to reach with the ad?”
And, of course, they have to keep the ad up. It is the only topic on which Obama can speak about with any knowledge. He even knows the words to the new Democrat campaign song "Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street" and is planning to sing it at his next fundraiser. (Of course, Oscar the Grouch's song "I like trash," is really more appropriate for Zero. He is surrounded by trash and wallows in it.)
The worst part of their running the ad, for them, is that it continues to remind voters of Obama’s horrid debate performance as nothing else can... and 70 Million plus saw that sucker...
Really unsmart.
LOL
BTTT
Romney needs to run and AD saying”Mr President we know you don’t want to talk about jobs lost, food up, utility bills up, wages down or even how your foreign policy is failing but I hope you stop talking about Big bird as we have more pressing issues as a country”
What else can Big Turd talk about? The economy? Libya?
