New Romney Super PAC ad uses Wis. business owner to attack Obama
A new ad running in Wisconsin from Romney Super PAC Restore Our Future features a Wisconsin small business owner claiming that President Barack Obama doesn't understand how to create more jobs.
The 30-second TV ad, titled "Small Business," begins with Joe Buechel of Natural Stone Veneers in Fond Du Lac, saying that Obama doesn't understand that small business "builds America's economy and creates jobs."
"Millions of small business owners like me pay taxes as individuals, yet most of our income is reinvested in the business to keep it growing," Buechel says.
Buechel says that he took a pay cut when the recession hit to save the jobs of his employees, but that Obama now wants to raise taxes.
"We can't create more jobs until Obama loses his," Buechel says.
