Priorities USA Action and the League of Conservation Voters Victory Fund have gone up with a joint ad buy of $1 million in Colorado and Nevada, the groups announced Wednesday. The ad accuses Mitt Romney of being a “$200 million man” who is “in the tank for big oil.”

“He’s the $200 million man and big oil’s fingerprints are all over him,” the narrator says. “Big Oil’s pledged 200 million to help Mitt Romney, and Romney’s pledged to protect their profits and billions in special tax breaks.”

The ad campaign mirrors an earlier ad from Priorities USA Action that also sought to go on the offense on energy by tying Romney to big oil.
