CONGRESSMAN CRITZ ALIGNS WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA

Pittsburgh, PA - While opening a new campaign office Saturday in the attempt to save his seat, liberal congressman Mark Critz echoed President Obama’s criticism of Mitt Romney’s VP choice of Paul Ryan, choosing to once again align himself with President Obama.  Keith Rothfus, challenger in congressional district PA-12, responded:

“Liberal Congressman Mark Critz has chosen to once-and-for-all align himself with President Obama in his fight to keep his political position and has elected to make his campaign solely driven by the same unfounded scare tactics used by President Obama – two career politicians, two desperate attempts to distract and deceive.  But who can blame them?  I honestly don’t know how I’d campaign if I had to run on a record of 43 straight months of over 8% unemployment, 9.3% unemployment in my home county, raiding Medicare of $741 billion to pay for a new government program, and trillions of dollars in new debt that force us to place our children’s future on the table and borrow more and more from China.  But my campaign is about getting people back to work, saving Medicare for our seniors by repealing Obamacare, and creating the kind of economic growth that will enable us to pay down our debt and provide for our families.  I stand not with President Obama, but with the American people.”
