If Romney is a traitor then what the hell is Obama?
Via Politico:
Mitt Romney left his management job at Bain Capital years ago, but two Democratic outside groups are hoping to make the Republican presidential candidate suffer for Bain’s decisions today to outsource jobs to China.
In a new TV- and web-based messaging push, the labor super PAC Workers’ Voice and the Democratic super PAC Patriot Majority slam Romney for a controversial Bain decision to move jobs at the company Sensata from Illinois to China. The move has spurred protests in Illinois, including from the Rev. Jesse Jackson.
The two groups will run TV commercials on the story in three markets: Youngstown, Ohio; Green Bay, Wis., and Pittsburgh. A strategist said the Pittsburgh ads are aimed at Ohio voters in the same market. Workers’ Voice and Patriot Majority will also run display ads, Facebook ads and search ads on Google and Bing.
The ads, which cost just under a million dollars, label Romney an “economic traitor” who built a company that now hurts U.S. workers.
Romney campaign spokeswoman Michele Davis pushed back on the messaging a “misleading ad that is attempting to distract voters from President Obama’s failed record on standing up to China.”
