Obama campaign spokeswoman Lis Smith told reporters the Romney campaign is off-balance and desperate after a top Romney surrogate, John Sununu, said in a campaign press call that I wish this president would learn how to be an American.
The Romney campaign has officially gone off the deep end, Smith said in a statement. The question is what else theyll pull to avoid answering serious questions about Romneys tenure at Bain Capital and investments in foreign tax havens and offshore accounts. This meltdown and over-the-top rhetoric wont make things better- it only calls attention to how desperate they are to change the conversation.

Bonus:
Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) tells Politico that he thinks Mitt Romney should release more of his tax returns:
Politically, I think that would help him, said the former presidential candidate. In the scheme of things politically, you know, it looks like releasing tax returns is what the people want.
Paul becomes the latest high-profile Republican to question Romneys unreleased tax returns, joining the likes of GOP caucus chair Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX) and Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley.

I think that this i energizing everyone on the left, I know it is for everyone I know!
