Rohrer radio ad responds to Obama’s Allentown visit

Rohrer radio ad responds to Obama’s Allentown visit

State Representative Sam Rohrer’s (R-Berks) gubernatorial campaign looked for a political opening in President Obama’s visit to Allentown this week when it ran a radio ad in the area which it called a “Main Street response.”

Rohrer, who is running an insurgent campaign from a conservative base, says the president isn’t “totally responsible” for the current poor economy in the radio ad his campaign said is running this week.

“Democrat and Republican reckless spending, taxes and overregulation put us in this spot—the squeeze on Main Street has been happening for a long time,” Rohrer says in the ad. “But the policies he’s proposed: the healthcare takeover, the anti-job CAP & TAX plan – the transfer of power to Washington that could take decades to reverse.”

    ironically, rohrer left off the pay raise he voted for himself out of the “robbing mainstreet” message.

    and meanwhile, gerlach is the one who actually has a record on these issues which rohrer is trying to latch on to. sorry sam.
