Union Goes Up With Anti-Romney Ad in Florida - NYTimes.com

The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the giant public employees’ union, will begin airing a 30-second video ad in Florida on Saturday attacking Mitt Romney for making what it said was a $473,000 profit from his firm’s investments in a medical company that admitted engaging in Medicare fraud. …. Larry Scanlon, the union’s political director, said this was the first time that his union, which overwhelmingly backs Democrats, was running an ad in a Republican primary fight. He said the union was spending nearly $1 million to run the ad on broadcast and cable television as well as the Internet. “We have a great interest in who the next president of the United States is,” Mr. Scanlon said in an interview.
