The U.S. Chamber Of Commerce has released a political ad that will not please those in the U.S. Senate campaign of Richard Blumenthal who no doubt have by now instructed the job killing attorney general how jobs are produced.
It is not the friendliest of ads. A black and white ad is almost always a portent of impending disaster.
This one begins with a distressed lady sitting at a table, possibly filing out a job application for a position that may not be available. Written on the floor in red letters are the words “Rising Unemployment,” followed by a voice over, “Rising unemployment means families are suffering. And after 40 years in politics, can Richard Blumenthal handle the truth about his record.”
Up pops a black and white picture of young Richard stranding before the White House, followed by a split picture showing Mr. Blumenthal sharing a frame with former Attorney General of New York Elliot Spitzer. Voiceover: “He’s been crushing small businesses for years with thousands of frivolous lawsuits, forcing some to close. His sue first and ask questions later stampede has earned him the worst attorney general in the nation in 2007…”
Pretty hard hitting stuff from a respected business organization.
"We hear from our small business members about the impact and consequences of frivolous lawsuits, said Chamber spokesman J.P. Fielder, “so that's what we're trying to highlight. Our ads are going to focus on economic issues and how they're going to impact job-creation."

I am a 30+ year CofC member in the state and have been a member of 5 chambers as well as frequent support chamber activities.
I beliver there are about 15 chambers around the state and the OVERHELMING membership I would take a guesstimate at is over 80% from small business (accountants, , architects, gas station owners, contruction, pet stores, hair cut, florists, deli, sign makers, painters, liquor stores, caterers, limo comapnies, )
small workforce if not mom & pop clarifications, just everyday hard working folks.
look it up
In addition, I stand on my analysis of the USA Chamber.The USA Chamber is obtaining money for the election from overseas businesses, some of whom are state run.The USA Chamber is getting some money from Businesses run by the Chinese government,a communist country of course and from Bahrain and other places.It is a shame where this trade organization must run to outside corporations many of whom are controlled by enemies of this country to fund Republican campains.
