Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is more loyal to billionaires and corporations than he is to the United States, according to a breathless fundraising plea from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC).
“You and I both know that Mitt Romney will sell America out if he becomes President — giving more tax breaks to his Big Oil and billionaire backers,” said Robby Mook, executive director of the DCCC, said in email today. “The reality is simple: If Mitt can bury us under a wave of corporate special interest cash, we will lose in November.”
Mook framed his email in context of Romney and the Republicans raising $101 million last month. Here’s his email:
BREAKING NEWS: Mitt Romney and the Republicans brought in a whopping $101 million in July. You and I both know that Mitt Romney will sell America out if he becomes President — giving more tax breaks to his Big Oil and billionaire backers. The only way we can stop them is to close this fundraising gap – starting today. Please do your part — make a donation of $3 or more right now to back up President Obama with a Democratic majority. The reality is simple: If Mitt can bury us under a wave of corporate special interest cash, we will lose in November. But if everyone who’s been waiting to give pitches in a few dollars, we can start closing the gap today. http://dccc.org/Close-The-Gap Thanks for all you do, Robby Robby Mook DCCC Executive Director
