Union ad bashes Romney on auto bailout in Ohio

By Keith Laing - 02/27/12 12:44 PM ET

A union is attacking Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's opposition to the bailouts for the U.S. auto industry in Ohio.

The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) released a campaign commercial Monday criticizing Romney in Ohio, a crucial general election swing state and host to a Super Tuesday GOP primary next week.

In the ad, titled "Romney's World," AFSCME says the former Massachusetts governor "would have turned his back on us in the depths of the recession."

"But he supported giving the banks billions in bailouts," the 30-second ad continues. "That's Mitt's world. Why would we want to live in it?"
