Obama campaign spokeswoman Lis Smith told reporters the Romney campaign is off-balance and “desperate” after a top Romney surrogate, John Sununu, said in a campaign press call that “I wish this president would learn how to be an American.”

“The Romney campaign has officially gone off the deep end,” Smith said in a statement. “The question is what else they’ll pull to avoid answering serious questions about Romney’s tenure at Bain Capital and investments in foreign tax havens and offshore accounts. This meltdown and over-the-top rhetoric won’t make things better- it only calls attention to how desperate they are to change the conversation.”
