Congressman Randy Forbes from Virginia’s Fourth District was on CNN’s “Starting Point” this morning with Soledad O’Brien and stated that negative ads will not be a deciding factor this election, but that Americans will be “basing their votes on their pocketbook.”
“The president spent about $10 million attacking Governor Romney, and so far most of that boomerangs back against the people that are running these negative ads, regardless of what party you’re in,” said Forbes. “But I still believe that as we head closer to the election, Americans are focused on one thing, and that is the economy, getting it turned around, and getting the jobs they feel they need.”
Starting Point with Soledad O’Brien airs weekday mornings from 7-9am ET on CNN.
