So Rick Perry has basically fallen off the map in the polls. His run for the GOP nomination is all but dead at this point.
In a move of desperation he's launched a pretty aggressive ad against Romney.
Personally I love this because maybe if all the republican nominees attack each other like children like this, Ron Paul may actually have a shot at the nomination.
That said, I think Perry accomplishes very little with this. Yes, he may very well knock Romney down in the polls, but I don't think it will raise Perry up. Which is kind of childish when you think about it - it's a "If I can't win then neither can you" attitude and it actually reflects everything that is currently wrong in Washington.
However, some would argue, and rightly so, that the more a nominee is attacked the better they'll be able to withstand the attacks during the general election.
With regards to the ad itself, overall I found it ineffective, but I will say the one moment where Obama is looking in the mirror and then suddenly it's Romney looking in the mirror was very creative.
