The DCCC's truth-challenged fundraising plea


As you can see from the below email, the “Reverse the Vote” initiative has struck a nerve with the DCCC:

Just this afternoon the DCCC blasted their email list with an email from James Carville claiming:

“This month, National Republicans started raising millions to target 24 Democrats who voted 'yes' on heath insurance reform with a
lie-riddled ad campaign called 'reverse the vote' to try and pressure them into changing their votes. We need to show these courageous Democrats that we have their backs. “

Aside from the fact that the DCCC’s spell check apparently wasn’t working today, we just can’t seem to find these “lies” that are being espoused:

Didn’t these Democrats vote in favor of
H.R. 3962, Pelosi’s Government Run Healthcare bill?

Don’t these Democrats
have a choice to vote as their constituents want, instead of how Pelosi tells them to?

While credit for the Reverse the Vote campaign must go to someone outside of our committee, it sure would be nice to turn Carville’s prophetic “millions of dollars” for Republican challengers in to a reality.

Please join us in shedding light on the DCCC’s mistruths, and help us give our challengers a leg up next fall by urging your readers to continue their support of this worthwhile initiative.
