Tea Party group sends anti-Obamacare video to 350k swing-state undecideds

Undecided voters in six swing-states are set to receive a documentary warning that their health care could be “determinated” by President Obama’s Affordable Care Act.

“Your life could depend on” the repeal of Obamacare, the Tea Party Patriots warn voters in “The Determinators,” which is being mailed to voters in an attempt to make this election at least partly a referendum on Obamacare.

“Our film exposes to swing state voters the ruse pushed on the American people by the President and supporters of his health care law,” said Jenny Beth Martin, the group’s national coordinator, in a statement on the documentary.  “If the healthcare bill takes full effect, government bureaucrats—not individuals and doctors—will make key healthcare decisions.”

Here’s the breakdown of how many videos are going to households in the six swing states, as the Tea Party Patriots are making an effort to take down Obama’s old swing-state firewall and his new one:

Florida: 100,500
Virginia: 83,392
Ohio: 72,047
Nevada: 15,128
Colorado: 39,214
Iowa: 49,716

Before Romney’s victory in the first debate, Obama’s team had reportedly regarded Florida, Ohio, and Virginia as the firewall that would ensure his reelection. Now the Obama campaign seems to be circling the wagons around Nevada, New Hampshire, Ohio, and Iowa.
