Jay Bookman GM on Romney: ‘Campaign politics at its cynical worst’

To date, GM has attempted to stay as far away from presidential politics as possible, fully aware that the White House is up for grabs and that it may very well find itself needing cooperation from a President Romney. But like Chrysler, GM felt forced to set the record straight, and the blunt language used by the company in its official statement was extraordinary:

“We’ve clearly entered some parallel universe during these last few days,” GM spokesman Greg Martin said. “No amount of campaign politics at its cynical worst will diminish our record of creating jobs in the U.S. and repatriating profits back to this country.”

“At this stage,” Martin said, “we’re looking at a Hubble telescope-length distances between campaign ads and reality.”

Totally disqualifies Romney.

Somehow I get the feeling it is being under-reported by the mainstream tv news outlets
