OBAMA RECORDS RADIO AD FOR O'MALLEY

Says O'Malley "Made the Tough Decisions to Put Education, Safety, and Job Creation First"

Baltimore, MD (September 28, 2010) -- President Barack Obama has recorded a new radio ad for Governor Martin O'Malley praising O'Malley's efforts to create jobs, invest in education, and improve public safety. In the 60 second ad, which will run in the Baltimore market beginning today and in the D.C. market beginning next week, Obama lays out the "choice" for Maryland voters between moving forward with Governor O'Malley or slipping backwards.

The release of the ad follows yesterday's visit by Governor O'Malley to the White House for the signing of the Small Business Jobs Act. The jobs bill was based in part on an O'Malley-Brown administration loan guarantee program, which has helped to leverage more than $2.2 billion of private sector financing over the years for Maryland businesses. O'Malley has made small business lending and hiring initiatives a priority, helping Maryland produce the best rate of January to August job growth since 2000.
