Florida ad wars: Romney attacked on Bain, Obama slammed for debt
by George Bennett | May 22nd, 2012A pair of ads from a female point of view are the latest negative spots to hit Florida airwaves in the race between President Obama and Mitt Romney.
The pro-Obama PAC Priorities USA is airing a new ad slamming Romney’s past leadership of the private equity firm Bain Capital, accusing Romney of profiting by shutting down companies and eliminating jobs.
The conservative PAC Crossroads GPS blasts Obama on the national debt, which has grown from $10.6 trillion when Obama was sworn in to $15.7 trillion today. The crossroads ad begins Wednesday.

The right wing has a lot of gall to knock Obama on the debt that in large part THEY CREATED…
…and after Boehner and the Republicans WALKED AWAY from a $4 TRILLION debt reduction deal.
…and considering that Romney’s financial plan would blow another MASSIVE Republican-caused hole in the budget by cutting taxes on the rich and increasing military spending.
At this point you have to be asleep or drinking the kool-aid to support the right wing in their 30-year plan to eliminate the Middle Class.

Romney is a Vampire in Mormon Clothing… under his leadership, Bain gutted companies, sucking them dry and leaving families in shambles without work or a means to provide for their children. Is this the type of leader we want?

Romney worked for a company that tried to help struggling companies become profitable again. the strugglinmg companies were loaned money and given management support. If they failed, they were already going to fail anyway. This is controversy about Bain being a bad company is so mis-leading and disappoints me in Presdient Obama.

People need to LEARN the FACTS – this debt was created by GWB!!!
The President, understanding that no capital was being put into the economy, pushed through a stimulus that saved the country from a DEPRESSION!, saved the auto industry and SO much MORE!!
Why do people always vote against their own interests? I Romney is elected the only ones who will benefit will be Corporations who don’t give a damn where their profits come from – they certainly don’t care about this country – they moved jobs and manufacturing overseas – that is a big reason we are in the mess we are in!!

I think that instead of criticizing other people, they should plan something to solve the issue of debt.
