Dems Send Gift Basket to Ted Cruz: 'Thanks For Making Obamacare Popular, GOP Less So'
Buoyed by a new poll showing that the current federal shutdown has whacked the Republicans and lifted support for Obamacare, one of the president's closest allies decided to thank the architect of the GOP strategy with a fancy gift basket.
“Dear Ted,” said the card to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz on the fruit and snack basket from 1-800-FLOWERS sent by the former Democratic Party communications director. “A Texas sized thank you!! Thanks to you, Obamacare is more popular and the GOP is less so. Keep up the Good Work!! Yours, Americans United for Change.”
He added, “it's the best $90 we've spent.” The gag gift, which cost $91.98 including the service charge, is called “Fruit Gathering,” and meant for “your closest friends,” according to the website.
A new Wall Street Journal/NBC poll found that support for the GOP has dropped and Obamacare soared.
Word of Woodhouse's gift has been making the rounds on Capitol Hill, even among some Republicans concerned about Cruz's tactics, dating to his 21-hour speech on the Senate floor aimed at defunding Obamacare.
