The Big Dog makes case for President Obama in new television ad

The Obama campaign's newest ad is a thirty-second spot featuring President Bill Clinton making the case for the president's reelection. The ad, which you can watch above, is set to air in eight swing states. Here's the transcript:

This election to me is about which candidate is more likely to return us to full employment.

This is a clear choice. The Republican plan is to cut more taxes on upper income people and go back to deregulation. That's what got us in trouble in the first place.

President Obama has a plan to rebuild America from the ground up, investing in innovation, education, and job training. It only works if there is a strong middle class.

That's what happened when I was President. We need to keep going with his plan.

Mitt Romney is probably a little jealous here. After all, the only living presidents on his side are both named Bush. And one thing you definitely won't see in 2012 is President George W. Bush coming out with an ad endorsing Mitt Romney ... not because Bush doesn't support Romney, but because Romney doesn't want to remind Americans that he'd be just like Bush.

According to the Obama campaign, the ad will run in New Hampshire, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Ohio, Iowa, Colorado, and Nevada.
