they certainly appreciated bill clinton. the latino community will be engaged if barren will win. we ll let you get back to your radio show. i will tell everybody, you can see more of ed schultz and his special coverage. you can join him for live coverage on the ed show for madison, wisconsin at 8:00 p.m. on msnbc. our thanks to ed. team obama ups the ante on its attacks for the massachusetts record with a brand new ad hitting the airwaves in key battleground states. take a look. it started like this. i speak the language of business. i know how jobs are created. but it ended like this. one of the worst economic records in the country. romney s campaign firing back, hitting the president where it hurts the most after a dismal jobs report on the economy. what we really have here is a deficit in leadership. and this president came into office without any prior experience running anything.
santorum and i have very different views on some issues but in particular very different experiences, life experiences. he worked as a lobbyist. he worked in congress. went back to being a lobby i. so he has never run anything. i actually ran two different businesses. i ran the olympics. got the chance to run a state. my experience as executive and leader. i think we ve seen what happens in a country when you have a president who has no experience running anything. that s what we have now. i don t think it will be pretty difficult to cron tras or very difficult to contrast the differences between our background. gregg: alan stewart, the national press secretary for rick santorum for president. alice. thanks for being with us. you great to be here, gregg. gregg: as the ad portrayed they re calling santorum liberal on fiscal issues. he voted against right to work legislation. voted for no child left behind, medicare part-d. raising minimum wage. raising the debt ceiling and repeated ea
