National GOP On the Attack in CNY

The National Republican Congressional Committee released a set of radio ads attacking House Democrats for voting in support of the trillion-dollar “stimulus” package. The ad targets two members of Central New York’s congressional delegation, Reps. Eric Massa (NY-19) and Dan Maffei (NY-25). You can listen to the ad that targets Massa below.



What is interesting to note is that the NRCC did not target Rep. Mike Arcuri (NY-24), who just barely survived re-election last year. The fact that political newcomer Richard Hanna nearly defeated Arcuri last year should be a sign of vulnerability. Apparently, the NRCC acts in mysterious ways.

The NRCC has also created a webpage that highlights NY-20 candidate Scott Murphy’s tax problems. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee responds with its own webpage blasting Republican candidate Jim Tedisco.
