NH TAXPAYER ADVOCATE GEORGE LOVEJOY
ENDORSES ROMNEY
Boston, MA – Mitt Romney
today announced that longtime New Hampshire taxpayer advocate George
Lovejoy has joined his campaign.
“For
decades, George has been on the front lines of the fight to cut
spending, reduce government and to preserve the New Hampshire
Advantage,” said Mitt Romney. “I am proud to have earned his support
and pleased that he has decided to join my campaign to create jobs and
reverse President Obama’s reckless fiscal policies.”
“This
election is without a doubt the most important in my lifetime and in
the history of our country. Winning this election must be the foremost
goal of every Republican, and I determined that I would support the
most conservative candidate who could defeat Barack Obama in 2012. That
candidate is Mitt Romney,” said George Lovejoy. “Mitt has the
successful business experience needed to lower spending and stop the
taxing and borrowing of the Obama Presidency. He is on the right side
of saving Social Security by fixing it instead of tearing it down. He
will use this country’s resources to stop illegal immigration and not
offer illegal immigrants incentives to come here at the expense of our
taxpayers. He has the stature, the respect and the knowledge to lead
this country back to job and business growth and to turn around our
struggling economy.”
