This personally swung votes in 2012

This ad would help Romney in 2026

I miss when internet comedy videos were high effort like this. That era where YouTube channels were borderline pretending to be real TV shows was goated. This video would be one guy filming himself and putting a towel on his head for the female roles now.

lol the concept of people actually being upset a candidate abused tax loopholes. 2012. What a time.

Romney v. Obama epic rap battles of history fed families

@nikicaga I genuinely can’t tell if this is pro or anti Romney

This just makes Mitt seem cool and awesome when in reality he is just a boring dork

It's also funny that, out of all the Psy parodies of the time, this one probably understood the original message of the song the best.

Lmao the other half of the ads were about him buying a factory and shutting it down.

Does anyone else remember when nick jr aired that whole thing about mitt romney supporting fracking?

No one saw this in 2012

I lived for these Gangnam style parodies in 2012

@IM_Aeneas 2012 was during peak YouTube. miss that

Weird that it keeps showing famous Mormon Mitt Romney with a wine glass in every other scene. Guy doesn't even drink coffee.

🎶I got large amounts🎶 🎶In Swiss bank accounts🎶 🎶Norris and Eastwood in my vacation house🎶 🗣️🗣️🗣️

If mitt won we would’ve never gotten trump

No it didn’t only weirds were on the internet in 2012, this is not a hit clip, this is not a classic. Only teenagers and the unemployed (which was shameful at one time) were watching ‘videos online’ This reached 200k people in 2012.

if this was 2026, Romney campaign account could post this themselves and it’d improve his favorables.

What does “personally swung votes” mean like your vote or you made this video or something?

obama was butt hurt he was poor and had to hang out with illiterate nogs!

What’s funny is I remember this video. It was intended to be anti-Romney at the time. The idea was saying “elect me bc I have money” was once upon a time seen as disgusting and laughable. This video is supposed to be seen as trashy but Gen Z/A likes it

God I used to watch these parodies so much in high school, literally sing along. I miss those days

This like a top 4 YouTube video for me

This was straight out of the Obama playbook. Paint Romney as wealthy and out of touch. In 2012, coming off the 2009 recession, people were not looking for a guy from private capital.

Watching this made me wanna vote for him back then

Ad just makes him look cooler than he is

This is such a banger and it makes him look cool asf lol

Thesis statement: the shift in perceiving wealth from a bad to a good thing shifted around the time of the Kardashians

They also said Romney was a raging racist who was going to put people "back in chains" to quote Joe Biden.

nine year old me loved this video

Because Millennials are fucking retarded. I hate my generation. You fucking people suck lol

I watched this video because I was a literal child. I don't think the crossover between viewers of this video and voters was very high.

Hard to tell if this ad is supposed to shame him or make him look cooler- 😭

Wait that was COLLEGE HUMOR?????????
