Obama starts new ad in TV buy, knocking Romney on China
President Obama's campaign today released a fourth ad in its TV buy for Wisconsin, this one knocking Mitt Romney on China.
The spot opens with Romney telling a group that, "It’s time to stand up to the cheaters and make sure we protect jobs for the American people."
The narrator cuts in, "Mitt Romney? Tough on China?"
The narrator goes on to say Romney's companies were called "pioneers" in shipping U.S. manufacturing jobs overseas, he invested in firms that specialize in sending jobs to low-wage countries like China and "Even today part of Romney’s fortune is invested in China."
The narrator concludes the spot, "Romney’s never stood up to China. All he’s done is send them our jobs."
The Obama campaign says the spot is running in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
