Peter Berg, the creator of the TV series "Friday Night Lights," sent Romney a letter on Friday expressing his displeasure with the Republican presidential candidate for co-opting the show's slogan, "Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose."

"Your politics and campaign are clearly not aligned with the themes we portrayed in our series," Berg wrote to Romney. "The only relevant comparison that I see between your campaign and 'Friday Night Lights' is the character of Buddy Garrity -- who turned his back on American car manufactures selling imported cars from Japan."

Why do people just assume they can use anything they want be it songs or slogans for their campaigns without getting permission first? Most politicians are lawyers - Did any of them ever hear of copyright infringement?
