When Mitt Romney Came to Town--Deleted Scenes

Have you seen When Mitt Romney Came to Town, the 30 minute attack ad being distributed by a Super-PAC (or as they should more properly be termed, Hench-PAC) supporting Newt Gingrich? If you haven’t, you should—it will take its place alongside Lyndon Johnson’s “Daisy” commercial as being among the most devastating hit pieces of all time. But really, it could have been much worse. Herewith a collection of some of the material that ended up on the cutting room floor. Suggest your own in the comments section below or on Twitter with a #deletedbain hashtag.

* Bain systematically destroys companies with employees named Sarah Conner.
