Mitt Romney's record as governor of Massachusetts received renewed scrutiny from his opponent's campaign Thursday in the form of a Web video, which uses Democratic officials from the state to discredit the GOP presidential candidate's time in the corner office.

The video from President Barack Obama's re-election team comes the same day David Axelrod, a senior strategist for the president's campaign, plans to hold a press conference at the Massachusetts State House in Boston to highlight what he says is a record of unfulfilled promises.

In the video, mayors and state legislators look back at Romney's tenure as governor and compare his campaign promises to results in Massachusetts. On jobs, the officials slam Romney for not developing solutions to an outflow of manufacturing positions.

"We knew that we were losing manufacturing jobs, and he never found any solutions to try and figure out how we going to keep them," Jeffrey Sánchez, a state representative, says in the video. "By the time Mitt Romney left office we were 47th in the nation in terms of job growth."
