Behind the Ad: Where Romney keeps his money

Who: The Obama/Biden campaign

Where: A web ad

What's going on: The Obama campaign is attacking Mitt Romney in an ad that features "man-on-the-street" interviews that ask the question: "Do you have an offshore bank account?" The ad flows from a Vanity Fair report that investigated Romney's finances and where he keeps some of his millions.

The punchline for this ad is supplied by one man who says: “I don’t have an overseas bank account, and I don’t think our next president should have one either.”

As I said earlier in the day, this issue may be a very big problem for Romney.
