Being 47th Out of 50 in Job Creation Isn’t the Worst, But Almost
Key Point: Even Rick Santorum knows that Mitt Romney’s brand of economics would be a disaster for our country and our economy – he’s been telling voters about it throughout the Republican primary.
Point-By-Point
Mitt Romney met with Rick Santorum today in Pennsylvania before a campaign stop at a manufacturing company where he’ll claim to be an economic expert. Even Santorum knows that Romney’s brand of economics would be a disaster for our country and our economy – he’s been telling voters about it throughout the Republican primary.
- Please see this new DNC video on Santorum’s recent attacks on Romney.
It was only weeks ago that Santorum was hammering Romney for his failed record as Massachusetts governor, when Romney:
- Ranked 47th out of 50 in job creation, with manufacturing jobs falling at twice the national average for the third-worst record in the country.
- Left his successor with a billion-dollar deficit and Massachusetts residents with more debt per person than any other state.
- Created six times more government jobs than private-sector jobs.
