In advance of the Super Tuesday vote in Ohio, the American Bridge 21st Century PAC released a new web video, effectively asking if Mitt Romney was going to flip-flop on his support for, and love of, Michigan in order to win Ohio. The video contrasts Romney's pandering speech ahead of the Michigan primary, which included such brilliant observations as "You know, the trees are the right height," with the Ohio State football anthem "We Don't Give A Damn for the Whole State of Michigan." Playing on the rivalry between the two states' top football schools, the implication is that now that he's already won in Michigan, Romney, known for his flip-flopping, will change once again and embrace the Ohio State song to win the next state on his march towards the Republican presidential nomination.

The lyrics to the song:

O, we don't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan
The whole state of Michigan, the whole state of Michigan
We don't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan, we're from Ohio
We're from Ohio...O-H
We're from Ohio...I-O
O, we don't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan
The whole state of Michigan, the whole state of Michigan
We don't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan, we're from Ohio
