In Mitt's first ad for his Presidential campaign, he looks at what the first day of a Romney presidency might look like.

The narrator, which sounds oh-so-close-but-not-quite-just like him, goes over what Romney would do on his very first day in office if he were to be elected. His first day would look something like this: Romney would wake up with the sunrise and eat a healthy breakfast of bacon and eggs with Ann as they watch the sun come over the White House grounds, and then he would go inside and "immediately approve" the Keystone XL pipeline, introduce tax reform, and end Obamacare with "common sense health care reform." That's a big frist day! 

John Surico from the Village Voice's Runnin' Scared, who directed us to the video, runs down a quick list of reasons why these things aren't really possible on a President's first day.
