The scoop on Romney's Massachusetts
|
Mitt Romney has said that if we want to know how he'd govern as president
of the United States, we should just look at his record as governor as
Massachusetts.
Well, we've got the scoop on Mitt Romney's record -- and we agree, it's
something every voter should see.
Romney made a lot of promises when running for governor a lot of the same
ones we're hearing today . Once in office, he failed to deliver.
Watch this short video about what happened in Massachusetts under Romney's
watch, then pass it along to folks you
know:

Economics
Mitt Romney ran for governor promising to use his experience as a corporate
buyout specialist to create jobs. Instead, Massachusetts ranked 47th out of
50 states in job creation during his four year term.
He promised to bring down the state's debt. It ballooned by more than $2.6
billion. Romney left Massachusetts taxpayers with more debt per person than
any state in the nation.
And, despite promising not to raise taxes, he raised fees on the middle
class and small businesses more than 1,000 times. By the end of his term,
the tax burden in Massachusetts had increased $1,200 per person.
As Democrats, we need to get the truth about Romney's record out in front
of voters, well before November, so they can compare his claims and the
facts, side by side.
We need voters to understand that Romney Economics is the last thing our
country needs -- it didn't work for Massachusetts then, and it won't work
for America now.
We're counting on Democrats like you to get the word out.
So take a look at this short video introducing Romney's real history, read
up on the record he's running on, and then share it far and wide:

Obama for America |
10:03 a.m. ET
We got beat
|
We learned this morning that the Romney campaign and the Republican Party have outraised us for the first time in this campaign.
Let's be clear here -- we could have 10 times as many people giving to us. You can see our results at the bottom of this message.
But they've got a lot fewer people, each giving in many cases 10 times as much, and those big donors are lining up now that Romney is the presumptive nominee.
That means it's up to each of us who has given to Obama to dig a little deeper to make up the difference. Now's the time to do it, before we fall further behind.
Mitt Romney has a lot banking on the storyline that his campaign isn't raising that much money compared to ours. But it's clearly false.
When Obama supporters repeat that point, it gives me chills.
The truth is that Obama haters and, to a lesser extent, Romney allies have declared that they will spend more than a billion dollars to make Obama a one-term president. In key states, outside groups have already poured $75 million into ads attacking the President. We just saw in Wisconsin what unlimited money from corporate interests and right-wing ideologues can do for a candidate who's ready to do exactly what they want.
And that's on top of what the Romney campaign and the Republican Party raise -- we learned this morning that it was $76 million in May alone -- and whatever he might contribute from his personal fortune.
From the beginning we've built this campaign together, from the bottom up. We are bound and determined to fight back, on behalf of a country where everyone gets a fair shot and a fair shake.
We don't have the special-interest and high-dollar donor advantage that Romney has. Barack Obama has you.
What are you going to do?

We know that only 15 percent of Romney's May totals came from people giving
less than $250, compared to 98 percent in that category for us.
We don't have the special-interest and high-dollar donor advantage that
Romney has. Barack Obama has you, and we are bound and determined to fight
back on behalf of a country where everyone gets a fair shot and a fair
shake.
From the beginning we've built this campaign together, from the bottom up.
More people giving a little bit is the only way to compete with a few

For Gabby...
|
--
At this moment, we are facing an extremely critical deadline in the Arizona special election to fill my friend Gabby Giffords' seat.
Right now, my friends at House Majority PAC are airing a powerful new ad exposing the Republican in the race for who he is.
If we want to continue Gabby's great work in Congress, we must elect Democrat Ron Barber and other Democratic candidates. That means getting the truth out about Tea Party extremists like Jesse Kelly.
We have set a goal to raise $X more to help House Majority PAC bring home a victory on Tuesday and beyond. Will you join us?
Contribute $X or more today before tomorrow's deadline [url]
House Majority PAC provides support for Democrats in House races across the country, including running ads like the ones that just this week helped Julia Brownley win the open primary in California's 26th district. Their ads can make the difference for many of our proud Democratic candidates as they expose the truth about deceptive ads from outside groups funded and controlled by Karl Rove and the Koch Brothers. That's why your help today is so critical.
This special election is especially dear to my heart as we fight to make sure Gabby's proud legacy can live on. I hope that you will join us before tomorrow's deadline so we can win together. Please give today before the deadline tomorrow [url]
Thank you for all that you do.
Yours truly,
Nancy Pelosi
P.S. I am only asking for contributions up to $X from individuals or federal committees. I am not asking for contributions from corporations, labor unions or other federally prohibited sources.
