Like the toy that inspired it, Mitt Romney communications man Eric Fehrnstrom's comparison between his candidate and the Etch A Sketch became an instant classic.

The Washington Post reports that they sent out 16 separate emails about Fehrnstrom's remark and within hours had produced a web video about the incident. This is no doubt the first of what will be a long string of anti-Romney attacks featuring the unfortunate analogy, and perhaps the beginning of an Etch A Sketch revival!
