An independent group with deep ties to the president&#8217;s re-election campaign launched a television ad Tuesday hitting Mitt Romney&#8216;s business practices at Bain Capital, just 24 hours after Obama&#8217;s team debuted its own ad attacking the Republican presidential candidate&#8217;s work at the private equity firm.

Rick Santorum calling Romney &#8220;the worst Republican in the country&#8221; to run against Obama? They&#8217;re hoping you don&#8217;t.
