Romney campaign spokesperson Andrea Saul responded indirectly to the Obama campaign’s new attacks on Bain Capital Monday with an email titled “Obama’s warped view of the free market.” In the statement, Saul doesn’t mention Bain, but attacks President Obama’s record, throwing in a mention of Solyndra and the stimulus.
We welcome the Obama campaign’s attempt to pivot back to jobs and a discussion of their failed record. President Obama has many questions to answer as to why his Administration used the stimulus to reward wealthy campaign donors with taxpayer money for bad ideas like Solyndra, but 23 million Americans are still struggling to find jobs. If the Obama Administration was less concerned with pleasing its wealthy donors and more concerned with creating jobs, America would be much better off.
In a separate response to BuzzFeed, the Romney campaign added a line defending Romney’s claim that he has created jobs during his career: “Mitt Romney helped create more jobs in his private sector experience and more jobs as Governor of Massachusetts than President Obama has for the entire nation.”
