Yes, but obviously the superpacs that unofficially support him would be stupid not to attack him.
Obama's not avoiding attack ads. Romney's key to victory is attacking Obama's record. Why should he avoid attack ads? Attack ads only backfire if they don't stick. If any attack can stick, it's claiming Obama has mismanaged the economy. The numbers certainly don't look good.
If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

I don't think you can argue that he mismanaged the economy. The economy was nearly destroyed under Bush and got better under Obama. Seems fairly straightforward.
Still, it's not appropriate for there to be attack ads against Obama.

He could blame the slow recovery on Obamacare. Wait, that was was his healthcare policy. I guess he could just babble about how he made money so therefore he knows how to fix an economy.Originally Posted by DaShi
Apparently, Romney has already taken credit for the auto-bailouts.

In his senate campaign against Ted Kennedy, Romney avoided attack ads only to get destroyed by the Kennedy attack machine. That experience has since shaped his view on campaigning. He wants to punch first, not wait and counter.

But it could negatively affect him against Obama.

Of course you can. The economy still sucks, and that's what low-information voters will base their views of Obama's management of the economy on.
... and he could use the fact that Obama wants to divorce Michelle and marry a man!!!
There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.
Also the high-information voters.
Yes, and exactly.

Blaming the recession on Obama, is like a kid whose bedroom is a messy disaster, and when his parents walk into the room, the kid blames his parents for the messy room.
This is where an awesome Mark Twain quote would be, but Apolyton says it would be too many lines. :(
No, it's like if a building collapses, and you're hired to fix it, and after four years you've made no progress because you're a wimp who wasted your time trying to win over people who hate you and want you to fail.
Regardless of actual cause, the simple question for most people comes down to "am I better or worse off then before".
Where to assess blame, POLITICIANS period. People will always vote the own interests. Sometimes they don't see what that is.
The OT at APOLYTON is like watching the Special Olympics. Certain people try so hard to debate despite their handicaps.

I'm fairly certain that isn't the question the Obama camp wants voters asking when they cast their ballots. Hence the nonsense wrt the "Forward" slogan.
‘Forward’?
As for the question in the OP, no as he's clearly very good at launching negative ads if the Republican primary isn anything to go by.

Whenever Democrats start suggesting "no attack ads", I have visions of Bugs Bunny as a boxing ref.

We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work...After eight years of this Administration, we have just as much unemployment as when we started...

Whoops, my mistake.

Sloww agrees. I concede.:

Roomay should have a ramrod hard campaign of ads attacking the trolls at Apolyton.
