Playing off an article in the Boston Herald, the ad highlights the stories of two companies — Acusphere and Spherics Inc. — that received $4.5 million in loans from a Massachusetts technology investment program created while Romney was governor. Both firms had ties to prominent Romney donors, and eventually defaulted on $2.1 million of the state loans.
And this money ended up in Romney backers hands. Maybe it’s not $54 million but who it was given to weren’t affiliated with Obama.
