Baker Campaign newest attack ad (Fake Fact Video)

The Baker campaign has outdone itself. On Wednesday it attacked a lottery employee who works two jobs because he supports Tim Cahill for governor.  Thursday’s gem was an attack ad whose “truthiness” is questionable:  He blames Deval Patrick for the 2006 market meltdown, claims Massachusetts is the 8th worst place to do business in the United States, then finishes with a comparison of Massachusetts to New Hampshire. In a democracy we get the government that we deserve.  Voters in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts deserve better then the sewage being put out by the Baker campaign.

This campaign has made a very clear choice about what path they are traveling — raise a lot of money and sling mud at the other candidates.  Then, two weeks before the election, they will light up the airwaves with attack ads and jam the phone lines with robo calls.

This is not about who is going to be governor but about how our democracy is run.  The Baker campaign wants to play “gotcha” games, run negative ads and blast you with robo calls.
