Mitt Romney hit for ‘liberal Massachusetts values’ in first Utah attack ad

Former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney is under attack in his race to replace retiring Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, in a new ad released Thursday labeling the former Massachusetts Gov. as an establishment “flip-flopper” with “liberal Massachusetts values.”

“The D.C. establishment loves Mitt Romney,” the ad narrator states. “But Utah voters have a better choice.”



The ad released by right-wing primary challenger Utah attorney Larry Meyers, brings back popular lines of attack that were used during Romney’s run for the White House in the 2012 election cycle, accusing Romney of changing his position on key issues important to Republican primary voters.

“Flip-flopper Mitt has been all over the map,” the narrator states, going on to accuse Romney of changing his position on issues related to the Second Amendment, and abortion.

The narrator also charges Romney of creating the basis for Obamacare, another line of attack used frequently in the 2012 presidential campaign.

“The last time Mitt Romney was elected, Mitt stuck the country with the blueprint for Obamacare,” the ad states.
