Restore Our Future, a super-PAC backing Mitt Romney, is up with a substantial new ad buy contrasting Romney with President Obama on their economic achievements.
"The debate this fall: Who can turn around America's economy? Mitt Romney spent his life in the private sector creating thousands of jobs. Barack Obama wasted $800 billion on a failed stimulus and the jobless rate went up," the ad's narrator says. "Romney cut spending and balanced budgets without raising taxes. Obama has added $5 trillion in debt. Proven leadership to fix the economy: Mitt Romney."
The ad's message touts the central argument of Romney's campaign — that he is better equipped on economic issues — while ignoring many of the day-to-day fights the Romney and Obama campaigns have been engaged in.
The group is spending $10.5 million to air the ad in every key swing state: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.
