Obama Adviser Denies CTV's Latest On NAFTA
The New York Observer managed to track down Austan Goolsbee, the Obama adviser who, according to the latest report on Canada TV, was the one who may have told a Canadian official that Obama's anti-NAFTA stump speech is merely "campaign rhetoric."
And Goolsbee denies it:
βIt is a totally inaccurate story,β he said. βI did not call these people and I direct you to the press office.β
Meanwhile, Obama spokesperson Bill Burton also denies this latest round, via email:
This story is not true. There was no one at any level of our campaign, at any point, anywhere, who said or otherwise implied Obama was backing away from his consistent position on trade.
