We need to use the same thing on Romney.

Keep bring the subject up.

When they try to make him sound like a warm and fuzzy guy, bring it up.
When they try to make him sound like a compassionate person, bring it up.
When they try to make him sound like a regular guy, bring it up.
Bring it up, bring it up, bring it up.

Also, include his wife's cars, his nascar owning friends, the dog on the roof, everything he has handed us on a silver or excuse me platinum platter to show him to be the arrogant, pompous, condescending, bigot that he really is.
