What to do when Mitt Romney comes calling in N.C.
Outsource Mitt
Mitt Romney has outsourced jobs to China and offshoring money to Switzerland even as he claims he would be a job creator and good steward of our economy as President. Do you believe him?
As CEO and Chair of Bain Capital, Mitt Romney has a record of investing in companies that outsourced jobs to other countries like China and Mexico, including at least one North Carolina company that closed its Charlotte plant and moved the jobs to Mexico.
Join us as we greet Mitt's campaign bus in three North Carolina locations this Sunday with a sea of protestors waving Swiss and Chinese flags and holding signs that make it plain - Outsource Mitt and Off-shore Mitt are not for N.C.!
Send Outsource Mitt Packing in Mooresville! - ROMNEY CANCELLED HIS APPEARANCE
Mitt Romney will begin his tour of North Carolina by condescending to NASCAR fans at NASCAR Tech outside Charlotte. Romney has had trouble relating to NASCAR voters, as shown in these choice quotes:
"I have some friends who are NASCAR team owners." —Mitt Romney, after being asked whether he follows NASCAR racing (February 2012)
"I like those fancy raincoats you bought. Really sprung for the big bucks." —Mitt Romney to a group of NASCAR fans wearing plastic ponchos at the Daytona 500 (February 2012)

Say "goodbye" to Outsource Mitt in Morrisville! - CANCELLED BY MITT ROMNEY
Mitt Romney will end his barnstorming bus tour of North Carolina less than 12 hours after he arrives with a last stop for pandering at a BBQ shack in Morrisville. There we are certain Romney will try his hardest not to insult the cooks.

Fundraiser for millionaire Mittens
Mitt Romney will return to North Carolina on Wednesday but not for more of Smokey's delicious pulled pork BBQ. Instead, Romney will attend a million-dollar fundraiser at Duke Mansion in Charlotte. It's an invitation-only affair, but you can join our party-crashing friends at Action NC not let Romney's return go unnoticed.
Giving money to Mitt Romney's campaign is a good investment for the millionaires who will attend this fundraiser. How good? About $87,000-per-person-good! That's the average value of tax cuts for millionaires Romney has proposed. Where will Romney get the money for that $87,000 giveaway to millionaires? From your middle-class pockets.
