		<description><![CDATA[Gotcha. Today, American Bridge 21st Century released a <a href="http://youtu.be/pjlE06Aepb8" target="_blank">new video</a> demonstrating Ken Cuccinelli’s inability to fulfill his duties as Virginia’s Attorney General while he runs for governor. Shunning nearly three decades of precedent, including that of his predecessor Bob McDonnell, Cuccinelli claimed that he was able to both campaign and serve as Attorney General. However, as this video shows, Cuccinelli missed a significant portion of an important meeting of the Governor’s Task Force on School &#38; Campus Safety while he was campaigning.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>WASHINGTON &#8212; Today, American Bridge 21st Century released a <a href="http://youtu.be/pjlE06Aepb8" target="_blank">new video</a> demonstrating Ken Cuccinelli’s inability to fulfill his duties as Virginia’s Attorney General while he runs for governor. Shunning nearly three decades of precedent, including that of his predecessor Bob McDonnell, Cuccinelli claimed that he was able to both campaign and serve as Attorney General. However, as this video shows, Cuccinelli missed a significant portion of an important meeting of the Governor’s Task Force on School &amp; Campus Safety while he was campaigning.<br />

<p><b><b><br />
</b></b>“We may be ‘nine months, a week, five hours and 30 minutes’ from Election Day, but already Ken Cuccinelli’s efforts to obtain his next job are interfering with his current one,” said Rodell Mollineau, president of American Bridge 21st Century. “The Attorney General may have thought he was capable of handling both. Now that he has proven he isn’t, he owes it to voters to do what’s best for the people of Virginia instead of what’s best for Ken Cuccinelli.”</p>
<p>Two weeks ago, American Bridge released a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V7iDweHE5w&amp;feature=youtu.be" target="_blank">video</a> highlighting Cuccinelli’s decision to discard tradition by continuing to serve as the state’s Attorney general while campaigning for governor. The previous six Attorneys General of Virginia have ultimately resigned from the position to run for Governor, including Governor Bob McDonnell, Jerry Kilgore, and Jim Gilmore.</p>
<p>When stepping down in 2009, McDonnell said, “The Office of the Attorney General is the Commonwealth’s law firm and demands a full time Attorney General. Historically Democratic and Republican Attorneys General have stepped down from this post in order to run for Governor. It is the right, and proper thing to do.”</p>
<p>American Bridge 21st Century is a progressive organization committed to holding Republicans accountable for their words and actions through the use of opposition research, candidate tracking, and earned media communications.</p>
<p>Video of the first 40 minutes of the meeting of the January 31st Governor’s Task Force on School &amp; Campus Safety is available here: <a href="http://youtu.be/hSwdUDyHPt8" target="_blank">http://youtu.be/hSwdUDyHPt8</a></p>

<p align="center"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Actually, the Truth Matters, Mitt…But That Doesn’t Mean it Can’t Be Funny</span></strong></p>
<p align="center"><em>JCER and American Bridge team up to release video series fact-checking the Romney campaign and starring Rosie Perez, W. Kamau Bell, and other comedians and entertainers</em></p>
<p>NEW YORK ­– Following up on the success of their “Wake the F*** Up” video with Samuel L. Jackson, the Jewish Council for Education and Research (JCER), in partnership with American Bridge 21<sup>st</sup> Century, announced today a new video series, <strong><em>“Actually….”</em></strong>  Written by and starring well known comedians and entertainers, the online video series will give Americans a funny, accessible–and truthful–take on Mitt Romney’s most outrageous lies and most out-of-touch statements.</p>
<p>A preview of the series is online today at <a href="http://www.actually.org/" target="_blank">www.actually.org</a> and the first video will premier soon, starring Rosie Perez and her take on Romney’s claim that he’d have a better chance at getting elected if he was Latino.</p>
<p>Other videos will feature<strong> Sarah Silverman</strong> &amp;<strong> Lizz Winstead</strong>, <strong>W. Kamau Bell</strong>,<strong> Elon James White</strong>, and <strong>Jay Smooth</strong>, and will tackle Romney statements on the environment, Medicaid, and other topics. The collaboration presents an opportunity to combine the candidate tracking and opposition research expertise of American Bridge with JCER’s successful record in leveraging both humor and celebrity star power to create appeals to voters grounded in the truths missing from Romney’s candidacy.</p>
<p>“The Hebrew word <em>emet</em> means not only to be factual in our statements, it means we should avoid deceit and trickery,” said JCER co-founder Mik Moore. “By this measure, Mitt Romney&#8217;s campaign is failing badly. We knew there were many distortions that needed correcting, and we knew there were many talented artists in the entertainment community who wanted to help set the record straight.”</p>
<p>“We know that opposition tracking footage and research-based fact checks aren’t the sexiest things out there, so we embrace this opportunity to break through the clutter and find a way to get information directly to voters who may not have otherwise seen it,” said Rodell Mollineau, president of American Bridge 21<sup>st</sup> Century. “With the <em>‘Actually…’</em>  videos, voters will realize that Mitt’s lies would be funny if they didn&#8217;t pose such serious consequences for our country moving forward.”</p>
<p>Videos will be posted every few days at <a href="http://www.actually.org/" target="_blank">www.actually.org</a>, and will include a call to action for viewers to share them with friends and family members seeking reliable information about the Republican ticket.</p>
<p>The Jewish Council for Education and Research is a federal Super PAC committed to vigorous engagement in civic life. By embracing social media and crowdsourcing, it has proven effective at getting attention in today’s saturated media market. The PAC’s two most recent videos, “Let My People Vote” starring Sarah Silverman and “Wake the F*** Up” starring Samuel L. Jackson, have reached a combined 6.6 million people in just weeks. JCER also created the 2008 video “The Great Schlep” with Sarah Silverman, which is widely credited with boosting Obama’s electoral results in Florida.</p>
<p>American Bridge 21<sup>st</sup> Century is a progressive organization committed to holding Republicans accountable for their words and actions through the use of opposition research, candidate tracking, and earned media communications.</p>

Chris Christie will be traveling to Iowa today to attend a fundraiser for embattled Representative Steve King, whose recent comments comparing immigrants to dogs has sparked a national outcry. This was, of course, not the first time King has made incendiary comments, and given Christie’s apparent intolerance for “crazy,” he is throwing his support behind one of the most extreme members of the House. American Bridge can only speculate that Christie is already working on his 2016 ticket.

Wonder what was going through Mitt Romney's head when Paul Ryan went off script and bashed tax shelters for the wealthy during their 60 Minutes interview?

American Bridge president Rodell Mollineau said, "Paul Ryan is off to a rough start, and not just because he's less popular than Sarah Palin or Dick Cheney. In one simple thought, Ryan both embarrassed Mitt Romney and spouted falsehoods about the Republicans' agenda. In truth, the Romney-Ryan plan not only fails to eliminate loopholes and giveaways, it places a heavy burden on the middle class by lowering tax rates for multimillionaires like Mitt Romney to less than 1%."]]></description>

Connie Mack is missing again. This week, Florida Rep. Connie Mack was once again absent from the House of Representatives after having spent the afternoon campaigning for Mitt Romney.  This is nothing new; as a representative of Florida, Mack has missed over 150 votes. This video shows some of the more important votes he missed while hanging out in California, campaigning for Romney, or raising money.]]></description>
