WATCH: Obama Bashes Romney’s Economic Plan In New Ad

President Obama released a new television ad today that will run in a handful of states that allow early voting.

As the New York Times reports:

Early voting begins Thursday in Iowa, the first of many battleground states that allow people to cast their ballots well before Election Day on Nov. 6. The Obama campaign said the new ad would run not just in Iowa but in Florida, Colorado and Nevada as well – all of which allow early voting.

In the ad, Obama briefly criticizes Romney, saying that “he doubled down on the same trickle-down policies that led to the [2008 economic] crisis in the first place.”
