A reversal of fortunes in Lordstown, Ohio By Steve Benen As part of the coverage of the comeback of the American auto manufacturing industry, it was good to see this report on CBS News last night: Watch video If you can’t watch clips from your work computers, the segment shows a GM plant in Lordstown, Ohio, where thousands of workers were being laid off two years ago, and where thousands of workers are now being hired. It’s a story the Obama administration is no doubt thrilled to see, not only because of Ohio’s electoral significance, but because it’s a piece of a larger puzzle that shows the White House got the industry rescue right and Republicans got it wrong. I especially liked the perspective of Lordstown Mayor Michael Chaffee, whose town is heavily dependent on the local GM plant, and who told CBS, “It was hard to turn a television on and see U.S. senators talking about letting the industry go away.” Republicans, I think he’s referring to you. washingtonmonthly.com
