Democrats Playing Economic Dirty Politics
4 February 2009
New Orleans-National Democrats paid for attack advertisements targeting three Louisiana Republican congressmen, in their home districts, to highlight GOP votes against President Barack Obama's proposal to stimulate the economy.
Joseph Cao of New Orleans, Bill Cassidy of Baton Rouge and John Fleming of Minden are freshmen who voted against the plan last week, as did all of their fellow House Republicans.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's radio ads began airing Tuesday. They say the three "voted against economic recovery." The campaign is part of a national effort: in all, the DCCC bought advertising attacking 28 House Republicans in their home districts, the committee said.
Another Louisiana Republican, U.S. Rep. Charles Boustany of Lafayette, said in a statement that the ad campaign is proof that Democrats are "playing partisan games."
