Eric Greitens attacks Chris Koster over ad featuring Barack Obama
Republican gubernatorial nominee Eric Greitens went on the attack Saturday over an ad featuring President Barack Obama endorsing Democrat Chris Koster for Missouri governor.
In the ad, the president says Koster will work to “protect the Affordable Care Act from Republicans working to take folks’ insurance away. He’ll finally expand Medicaid in Missouri, giving more folks the financial security of health care.”
Obama goes on to say Koster will fight for public education and to raise the minimum wage, before concluding with: “My name might not be on the ballot this year. But all the progress we’ve made together sure is. Chris Koster will build on that progress, not roll it back.”
Greitens campaign quickly sent out a statement, saying the ad is evidence that Koster is “just another liberal, big-government Democrat politician like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.”
