Announcer: Two former governors … two good family men … Both pro-life.

It's true that both Huckabee and Romney oppose abortion – now. But Huckabee was  pro-life while he was governor. Romney, not so much. Don't take our word for it. Here's Romney at a September debate in Iowa:

Romney: I never said I was pro-choice, but my position was effectively pro-choice. I've said that time and time again. I've changed my position.

We don't begrudge Romney the right to change his mind, and he's been open about the fact that his position has changed. But many Iowa voters may still be unaware of that, and this ad implies that there's no difference between these two candidates on abortion. That's a stretch.

Let Them Pick Lettuce
The second half of the ad contrasts the positions of the two on immigration:

Announcer: Mitt Romney stood up, and vetoed in-state tuition for illegal aliens … opposed driver's licenses for illegals. Mike Huckabee? Supported in-state tuition benefits for illegal immigrants. Huckabee even supported taxpayer-funded scholarships for illegal aliens.

    Comment: Could you show how it was biased? So far no one has done so.

    Comment: What is embarrassing about it? Nothing. It does not embarrass me. It wouldn't embarrass you if you knew what you were talking about. I doubht you are a true Mormon.

Isn't it ironic: Xerox is hoping it can profit by teaching companies how to reduce their printing.
