Linda McMahon Doorhanger: Vote For Obama … And Me

Source: TPM

"Connecticut Republican Senate nominee Linda McMahon has been telling voters lately that it’s okay to vote for President Obama as well as her. Now she’s taking it a step further — and getting about as far away from her own party’s nominee for president as she can — and actually urging voters to cast their ballots for Obama as well as in the final days of the campaign.

McMahon campaign doorhangers that Democrats say they’ve discovered in minority neighborhoods this weekend couldn’t make it more clear: “Vote Barack Obama For President and Vote Linda McMahon For Senate,” they read. It’s a surprising suggestion from a Republican who, along with her husband, has given $150,000 to help make Romney the next president of the United States."

Who's she kidding? She will vote in lockstep with the rest of GOP as dictated by her Senate leaders. This smacks of desperation.

Apparently the backlash (tons of calls to Repug CT HQ) after the Obama/McMahon ad's went up over the state wasn't enough. If she's putting $50mm of her own money into this campaign, how much is she planning on "making" as a senator (god forbid)? All of these post C.U $$$ (see Adelson, Sheldon, and Brothers, Koch) people are EXPECTING a 5x/10x rate of return on their "investments" on the Repugs. they're backing.

Dear god I am so sick of her and her stupid commercials.

So, Linda, are you still going to repay your creditors that you stiffed in Bankruptcy court? You know, the ones you owed before you became a 0.01%er.
