Is Obama's 2008 Campaign Slogan of 'Hope and Change' Still Real or Is It Laughable?

There are ugly ads and dirty politics on both sides this year for the 2012 presidential election. Obama Deputy Campaign Manager Stephanie Cutter has been accused of lying of her knowledge of the the latest attack ad's contents.

In case you missed it, there was an Obama Super PAC ad trying to link Romney to a woman's death from cancer because he ran a business that needed to close a factory. A man lost his health insurance and his wife died because they could not afford the treatment. Hanging that on Mitt Romney is a horrific claim. Even Democrats agree. In fact, it seems like the lowest form of dirty politics we have seen in recent memory.

I would expect this sort of thing from most politicians but it was coming from the guy whose 2008 campaign slogan was "Hope and Change." Maybe he meant "I hope not to change anything in Washington" -- because that's what it looking like. Do you still believe that Obama is trying to change the culture of Washington in a positive way or is it more business as usual?

FOXNEWS.COM reports:
Mitt Romney asked Thursday where all the hope and change has gone, as President Obama's supporters pressed ahead with plans to air a misleading TV ad and a top campaign aide was accused of lying about her knowledge of its contents.

    idiot, if the GOP (we are far from the right - still mid) had not been there we would not be a county anymore as we have looked in the pass. and If the GOP had done thier jobs better we would not be losing our country to idiots like you - Anti God, Anti-American, low lack morals and values.

    Please list something "positive" this Liar-In-Chief has proposed that is being blocked. He had the first 2 yrs of his presidency to get all he wanted shoved on the country passed, as he had a majority in both the House & Senate. Someone needs to tell the children (progressives) "NO!!!" If not, we lose a wonderful country to a tyrant.

    Embattled Stephanie Cutter Drops ABC “This Week” Appearance.  Stephanie Cutter

    by Dana Loesch
    President Obama's embattled deputy campaign manager, Stephanie Cutter, was scheduled to appear on ABC's "This Week" yet seems to now have changed her mind as calls for her firing intensify. Cutter took to the press this week to claim that she and the campaign were unfamiliar with Joe Soptic and his story. This turned out to be false: not only was the Obama campaign familiar with Soptic, they hosted him on an OFA conference call and previously used him for a campaign ad. The campaign has dispatched David Axelrod to go in Cutter's place as it's likely Cutter would face too many question regarding her dishonesty on Soptic and the campaign's suspected coordination with Priorities USA, which seems ripe for an FEC investigation.
    We look forward to hearing how Axelrod handles explaining the curious similarities between the campaign's ad and the super PAC's ad -- as well as whether or not this means Obama has changed his mind about super PAC regulations when it seems his campaign may now be flouting existing law. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-...
