Annette Taddeo is sweating like Joe Garcia in an ethics hearing
The thought of a Democratic primary in FL-26 has Annette Taddeo sweating. Just one week after The Miami Herald reported that Taddeo may face a primary challenge from a deep-pocketed son of a Hillary Clinton donor, Taddeo is now touting the endorsements of liberal Reps. Lois Frankel and Alcee Hastings.
Frankel and Hastings vote with Nancy Pelosi 98.1% and 97.2% of the time. And while these liberal endorsements are unlikely to scare off the son of a wealthy Hillary Clinton donor from running a primary challenge against a perennial losing candidate like Taddeo, they will scare off the moderate voters who Taddeo needs to win a general election. With knee-jerk reactions like this, it’s no wonder Taddeo has never won a race.
NRCC Comment: “Annette Taddeo is sweating like Joe Garcia in an ethics hearing over the possibility of facing an expensive Democratic primary in Florida’s 26th District. Taddeo touting the endorsements of liberal Members of Congress may help her in a Democratic primary, but it will only hurt her in the general election in this moderate district.” –NRCC Spokesman Chris Pack
