So you probably haven’t seen it if you aren’t in one of America’s
precious, coddled Swing States, but a pro-Obama PAC has been running a
mean ad featuring a guy who was laid off because Bain Capital made the
business he worked for more efficient, and he says that his wife died
because they didn’t have health insurance because he was laid off
because Bain Capital thought that would be a good idea. You might think
this is mean and unfair and don’t hate the specific corporate player
hate the employer-based health-care system game etc., but surely when an
ad is going out that basically has a blue-collar dude saying “MITT
ROMNEY KILLED MY WIFE” the Romney campaign has to respond somehow,
right? Well they did, actually, and they did actually respond with
legitimately good advice! This advice was: people who need good health
care should move to Massachusetts, because they have universal coverage
there, thanks to Governor Romney. Wait, what?
