Pro-Obama Super PAC Revives Bain Capital Attacks In Final Push To November
Source: TPM
The Bain Capital ad that Democrats, Republicans and independent pollsters agree dogged Mitt Romney through the summer is back, and the pro-Obama super PAC behind it says reminders of Romneys time at Bain will haunt Romney through the homestretch.
The super PAC Priorities USA announced Saturday that its re-airing one of the Bain TV ads from its summer blitz and preparing new spots focused on Romneys time at the company to run in the coming days.
Viewers in the swing states of Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Ohio, Nevada, Virginia and Wisconsin will get to see Stage a spot ABC News called The Bain Ad That Romney Should Fear the Most when it debuted in late June.
Stage has more than 2 million views on YouTube, and Priorities says the spot has left a lasting impression. In our Ohio focus groups this week, we asked swing voters to name the television ads that stood out most to them, in all the welter of advertising they have seen, Priorities chief Bill Burton wrote in a memo detailing the new Bain plans. Stage is the ad that most frequently came to mind: participants were able to describe it in detail and recall the emotional impact it had on them, despite the fact that it had not run in that market for over six weeks.

(4,802 posts)We hope they know how to fight and not hold any punches.. What Priorities Pac next need concentrate on; this week's revelation by Gregg Palast showing how Mitt Romney and hedge fund manager Paul Singer gamed GM's Delphi stock in order to extort auto bailout funds at a huge cost to taxpayers...

(18,124 posts)How many JOBS has bain destroyed and shipped over to china? That's a factoid that would help. How much pension money was taken from workers and put into the cayman islands and other hidden mittytwit assets? I don't have the resources to research, yet it does seem like a black and white issue.

(290 posts)why another ad hasn't been made on the "Freeport" jobs. It's happening right now and I would imagine there wouldn't be any problems getting some employees to participate in the ad.....And because it is so current, I think it would make a huge impact, especially highlighting the number of times they have pleaded with Romney to come to their site to save their jobs...

Also, a YouTube video of Bain Capital "helping" a steel plant, which someone else later debunked:
