Mitt Romney is getting a little help from a reality show star whose gig aligns perfectly with the candidate's prime directive.
It's all about the jobs, or the lack thereof in the Age of Obama.
Mike Rowe of "Dirty Jobs" fame will campaign with the GOP presidential hopeful starting tomorrow in the crucial state of Ohio.
The Discovery Channel personality and Ford Motor Co. pitchman will offer his support Wednesday to Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney at a public event in Bedford Heights.
Romney's campaign announced the Rowe endorsement late Monday when confirming Romney's Cleveland-area itinerary for the final day of a two-day bus tour through battleground Ohio.

Common sense is a gift given from God.... any collage degree can be bought.
God bless Mike Rowe, an American patriot.
Same here... this is fantastic news!
Welcome aboard, and thank you Mike Rowe!
I am afraid Dummies are going to raise a stink and threaten to boycott. But obviously, Mike has thought that through and doesn’t care. Good for him!
You got that right. :)
Always loved Mike Rowe!!!!!!!!!!!
These skilled labor jobs are no longer points of pride but are shuffled off to immigrants, legal and illegal, because too many Americans have fallen in love with the idea of the idle desk job and frivolity.
There's also the attitude that the only "real work" involves sitting at a computer. I encounter that at tech sites and it's deplorable.
"Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth." Eph 4:28, (bold mine)
I would be bored sitting at a desk job... give me a backhoe operator or stream roller job anyday.
I’m even more glad now to bleed Ford blue.
I knew there was a reason I liked Rowe.
He actually started out as a folk singer. How does that song go?....hmmmm.. oh yeah..."Michael row the boat ashore, alleluia..."
Hub and I do too. I especially like the paper towel commercials with his parents. They’re soooo funny!
Wouldn’t it be great if the Deadliest Catch crews came out for Mitt?
Talk about a shot of testosterone!

Politics is a Dirty Job but someone’s gotta do it! Mike Rowe is trying to protect and promote the jobs that do keep us all working.
From ostrich farming to cleaning storm drains this key “endorsement.” Mike Rowe has picked up a shovel and used it many times. Obama, where’s your shovel? Oh right you don’t have one.
I’m not worrying about Hollywood Types. Mike Rowe made his own success. He’s nobody’s lap dog. Discovery will keep him on as long as “Dirty Jobs” and “Deadliest Catch” bring in the bucks.
And they keep on bringing in the dollars. Wonder where Les Stroud and Bear Grylls lean on this?
I knew I liked Mike Rowe now I know why....Not because he likes Mitt but because he doesn’t like the Kenyan
