Mitt Romney is out with a mail piece in New Hampshire going after three of his Republican opponents in one fell swoop. Per Embed Producers:
He calls John McCain “big-government, big-tax, big-bureaucracy,” labels Rudy Giuliani “higher taxes and budget-busting spending,” and notes that Mike Huckabee “supported numerous tax increases,” in a glossy pamphlet titled “Taxpayers must take a hard look at the candidates for president.” It adds that Romney has the “experience, vision and values to defend the American taxpayer.”
On Huckabee, the mailer notes that he “raised taxes by more than $800 million as the average Arkansans’ tax burden increase 47% and state spending more than doubled.”
On McCain, it points out that he was “one of only three Republican to twice vote against a $350 billion tax cut” and “voted twice against a permanent repeal of the death tax and has said tax increase are ‘on the table.’”
On Giuliani, it mentions that he “grew the (NYC’s) budget by 37.6%, and left a budget gap of $3.1 billion,” and “sued Republicans to keep a $360 million commuter tax and called the line item veto unconstitutional fighting it to the Supreme court.”
