The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), a leading small business association, announced it’s endorsement of Republican Ron Johnson. Why? Well, for one, Johnson is a small business owner. He also opposes Obamacare. Oddly enough, a lot of small businesses don’t like it either:

“Ron Johnson is a small business owner and NFIB member, which makes this endorsement especially meaningful,” said Lisa Goeas, NFIB’s vice president for political operations. “Our small business membership knows that Ron is one of their own, which means they are even more likely to actively support his candidacy by encouraging their employees, friends and family members to turn out and vote for him on election day.”
“Ron was inspired to run against incumbent Senator Russ Feingold when Feingold voted for the healthcare bill last year,” Goeas pointed out. “He is a vocal advocate against the law, as is NFIB. We believe that Ron’s perspective as a business owner will help the U.S. Senate develop policies that let small business do what it does best, which is create jobs and grow the economy.”
