Restore Our Future, the pro-Romney super PAC, is launching a new ad attacking President Obama over unemployment in Michigan and Wisconsin, reports CNN. The group spent $2.2 million for one week of air time for both states.
The ad talks about the “real unemployment” rate, which includes people who have dropped out of the workforce.
“Millions of Americans are disappearing from the workforce because they can’t find jobs,” a narrator says. “The overall unemployment rate doesn’t even count them anymore. Eight million Americans have dropped out of the workforce since Obama became president … the real unemployment rate is nearly 19 percent.”
Both campaigns have invested more resources in Wisconsin in recent weeks.
