Code Red to Possible ‘Yes’ Votes: Brace Yourselves
NRCC Prepares TV Blitz for Democrats Who Move Forward On Gov’t Healthcare Takeover
Washington- The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), as part of its Project Code Red offensive, has readied a new TV ad for any wavering Democrats who are considering a ‘Yes’ vote on their party’s government healthcare takeover. With Washington Democrats stuck in the middle of madness, President Barack Obama and Speaker Nancy Pelosi are leaning hard on their members to turn their backs on the American people and help them sneak an unpopular healthcare bill through Congress. Titled “NRCC Washington Madness,” the purpose of the ad is clear: Any Democrats who might think that they can get away with a ‘Yes’ vote for the Obama-Pelosi healthcare bill should brace themselves for an all-out blitz courtesy of the NRCC.

Transcript: It’s March…and that means it’s madness. But not basketball madness…it’s madness in Washington. Democrats like Alan Mollohan are backing a “corrupt” bill . Pork-barrel spending. Special deals for Nebraska, Florida, Louisiana. The press says “it’s about bribery…” “behind closed doors…” “After all this wheeling and dealing, we will still have a cost-raising, tax-increasing… bill…” Call Alan Mollohan. Tell him to stop the corruption…stop the madness. [Disclaimer] The National Republican Congressional Committee is responsible for the content of this ad.
“President Obama and Speaker Pelosi seem to think they’ve got this vote in the bag, but the truth is that many Democrats are rightfully scared to walk the plank once again,” said NRCC Communications Director Ken Spain. “If Democrats need a reminder of what’s to come if they do cave and deliver a ‘Yes’ vote, we’re more than happy to provide it for them. The American people have repeatedly rejected the Obama-Pelosi healthcare agenda, but Democrats are using every underhanded backroom tactic they can think of to sneak this bill through Congress. In case any wavering Democrats were wondering, a vote for this government healthcare takeover is a vote for a full-on ad blitz courtesy of the NRCC.”
