With the Charlotte, NC skyline as a central feature, a new Romney campaign web video is hitting President Barack Obama for his impact on the state and city that will host Democratic National Convention.
The Romney campaign contends that Charlotte and the rest of the battleground state have suffered job losses and increased unemployment under Obamas leadership something the campaign points out is exactly the way Obama encouraged Americans to judge his presidency.
You see, we Democrats have a very different measure of what constitutes progress in this country, the web video shows Obama saying at the 2008 convention in Denver. We measure progress by how many people can find a job that pays the mortgage, whether you can put a little extra money away at the end of each month so you can someday watch your child receive her college diploma.

The campaign cites figures from The Bureau of Labor Statistics and the N.C. Department of Commerces Division of Employment Security, which point out that North Carolina has lost nearly 50,000 jobs since Obama took office.
