TAMPA, Fla. — The Obama campaign was handing out “goody” bags to reporters on Tuesday that included anti-Mitt Romney propoganda like a passport stamped in the Cayman Islands and Switzerland — a reminder of Romney’s foreign bank accounts.

The bag also included a checkbook-sized “Romney-Ryan voucher” for “-$6,400″ a year, which refers to the plan created by Romney running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, that would convert Medicare to an insurance-premium support program.

A “100 grand” candy bar highlights Romney’s wealth and a keychain that reads, “Let Detroit go bankrupt” reminds voters of Romney’s opposition the the auto industry bailout.
