DCCC targets 12 Republicans on stimulus
Posted: 05:00 AM ET

From CNN Political Editor Mark Preston

WASHINGTON (CNN) – A dozen House Republicans are targeted in a new House Democratic political campaign that criticizes the GOP lawmakers for opposing the $787 billion stimulus package.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee will contact voters this week by telephone with a recorded message saying that their Republican congressman voted “against the largest tax cut in history,” and against a stimulus bill that the business friendly U.S. Chamber of Commerce supported.

The campaign also includes “emails and text messages directly to targeted Republicans’ constituents,” a DCCC official tells CNN. House Democrats have also created a Web site to explain how they believe the stimulus bill will affect individual congressional districts.

Only three congressional Republicans, all senators, voted for the final passage of the stimulus bill.

Does it every cross anyone's mind that these guys are not stalling or not being "bi-partisan", but only voting the wishes of the folks they represent?? If I recall by the time of the vote over 60% of voters were against the so called stimulus.

He won....Now he's traveling around the country and Canada trying to convince everyone (including himself) that it was the right thing to do.
