| While Presidential battles are never fought with sweet talk, Barack Obama took his opponent bashing to a new level when he termed his Republican challenger Mitt Romney a "bullshitter".
The remarks that came in an interview to Rolling Stone magazine were essentially a light hearted aside, but led to many raised eyebrows.
Mr Obama has repeatedly called Mr Romney untrustworthy for his changing positions on major issues and even coined a whole new term for his condition -- Romnesia
This time, however, the President took it a notch higher when responding to a suggestion on his popularity in kids, he said the young ones could see who was a 'bullshitter'.
"You know, kids have good instincts," Mr Obama offered.
"They look at the other guy and say, 'Well, that's a bullshitter, I can tell," the US President said.
Mr Obama said this when the editor interviewing the President told him that his six-year-old had asked him to convey to Mr Obama that 'You can do it'.
"That's the only advice I need," he said.
"I do very well, by the way, in that demographic. Ages six to 12? I'm a killer," he joked.
Mr Obama also said that by the next Halloween he hopes Mr Romney will be an ex-presidential candidate.
The Obama Campaign later asked journalists not to get "distracted by the word".
