Deli owner: Take my store out of Obama ad

The owner of a specialty deli at Findlay Market wants her store’s name removed from an ad President Barack Obama is using to defend his record on small business.

Ten seconds into the ad “Always,” a man is shown from behind, pushing up the security door of Krause’s while Obama’s voice talks about owners sacrificing to make their businesses run.

The owner of the store, Debra Krause-McDonnell, said that she did not give permission for her business to be shown and that some customers have told her they’ll no longer shop there.

“I’ve been put into a position I didn’t ask for,” she said Wednesday after the Hamilton County Republican Party sent out an email about the ad that accused Democrats of not responding to the owner’s concerns. “I’m a little angry.”

*snip*

She said in fighting against the ad, she’s also sticking up for her husband, Horace McDonnell, who died in 2007. He was a former president of the Findlay Market Business Association.

Faux disagreed that Krause-McDonnell would be just as angry if the ad were airing for Romney.

“From my conversations with her, it’s clear she’s not an Obama supporter,” he said. “So she’s got a political agenda.”

The left are disgusting.

I'm trying to figure out the point of Faux's remark. Is she not allowed to have a political agenda unless it agrees with The Won? Wait, stupid question.

She’d be just as angry, she said, if it were an ad for Mitt Romney.

A store manager knew about the filming, Krause-McDonnell said, but was told it was for a survey on riot doors, those metal garage-type doors that pull down and lock to protect storefronts. That might be true, said Caleb Faux, director of the Hamilton County Democratic Party, who researched the ad confusion and spoke with Obama campaign officials in Columbus.

So she was lied to by the obama campaign? And she said she would be just as angry if it was Romney. From what I see, she has no agenda and is trying to keep her business out of politics. She is a smart woman.

Success, another small business soon to be driven into bankruptcy by Obama.

This lady was on Great last night. She said that she would have done the same thing if it was Romney. And the thing she is most upset about is that she was lied to by the people who were doing the filming. They told her that it was for iron doors to keep burglars out.
