Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley: Romney’s Swiss Bank Account Is Un-American

Someone with a Swiss bank account who spent a career off-shoring jobs isn’t someone concerned about America, says the Maryland governor.

“President Obama isn’t running against the Almighty, he’s running against the alternative. The alternative in this case is Mitt Romney, who had the 47th worst job creation rate as governor, and also has a penchant — a talent — for offshoring American jobs, sending them overseas and also maintaining offshore bank accounts in Bermuda, Swiss bank accounts,” he said on ABC’s “This Week.”

The chairman of the Democratic Governors Association continued, “I’ve never known of a Swiss bank account to build an American bridge, a Swiss bank account to create American jobs, or Swiss bank accounts to rebuild the levies to protect the people of New Orleans. That’s not an economic strategy for moving our country forward.”
