The Obama campaign is sending 11 Massachusetts Democrats to relay the message that Mitt Romney cannot deliver on his promises in nine swing states this week, the Boston Globe reports. Since, current and former Democratic elected officials from Massachusetts have held more than 100 events in 11 swing states. The latest round of visits is timed to the first presidential debate on Wednesday. 

The idea, Obama campaign spokesman Michael Czin said, is to make the president’s criticisms of Romney concrete.

 

“Those who served with Romney are in a unique position to tell voters across the country about Romney’s record of failed leadership and failed policies in Massachusetts,” Czin said…

 

Bay State Democrats like Walz bring a warning to the nation’s battlegrounds: Don’t be fooled, like we were.

 

“A lot of people in my family voted for Mitt Romney. Mitt Romney was an impressive candidate for governor,” said Somerville Mayor Joe Curtatone. “But he didn’t deliver.”
