DEFIANCE, Ohio -- Mitt Romney attacked his Democratic opponent, President Barack Obama, in this rural and manufacturing city Thursday, on education and trade, passing along a report that Chrysler might move all of its Jeep manufacturing to China, which the company has denied.
"I saw a story today that one of the great manufacturers in this state, Jeep, now owned by the Italians, is thinking of moving all production to China. I will fight for every good job in America, I'm going to fight to make sure trade is fair," Mr. Romney said.
His comments, apparently in reference to the Jeep assembly plant in Toledo, came during an energetic and entertainment-filled rally in the Defiance High School football stadium.
The Obama campaign said the story about Jeep was "totally debunked."
Chrysler Co. issued a statement Thursday that "Jeep has no intention of shifting production of its Jeep models out of North America to China. It's simply reviewing the opportunities to return Jeep output to China for the world's largest auto market. U.S. Jeep assembly lines will continue to stay in operation."
