RGA unveils new TV ad linking Barrett, Doyle
The Republican Governors Association unveiled a new TV ad today that compares Tom Barrett to Jim Doyle.
The spot opens with the narrator asking viewers if they would go back to 2010 and Doyle’s administration if they had a time machine.
“I didn’t think so,” the narrator says, adding unemployment went up 37 percent under Doyle and taxes increased $1.6 billion.
“That’s exactly what would happen if one made Tom Barrett governor,” the narrator adds.
The spot then says Barrett raised taxes in Milwaukee every year but one, unemployment was up 28 percent and government spending increased $300 million.
“Tom Barrett, he’d take Wisconsin back,” the spot concludes.
