Dems call Carlos Curbelo a ‘sellout’ in Labor Day ads

To show what a big bull’s eye Congressman Carlos Curbelo has on his back, curbeloselloutDemocrats are spending money on negative ads against him a full 15 months before he faces a Democratic challenger in the 2016 election.

To be fair, he’s not the only one. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee released the Republican attack coupons against a total of 18 incumbents across the country.

Pegged to Labor Day, the clever ads are designed to look like coupons and “are good for for one sellout on issues that matter to working families.”

Guess they don’t think he’s a closet Democrat in disguise.

“This weekend is Florida Republican Curbelo sworn inCarlos Curbelo’s Labor Day Sellout event of hardworking Americans,” states a DCCC press release that was probably cut and paste with 18 different names on it. “The paid advertising campaign highlights Congressmen Carlos Curbelo’s votes against hardworking Floridians, including key anti-labor votes.”

The ads will be published online and in some print publications. Please clip and save one for Ladra if you see it.

Items featured in the Curbelo Labor Day weekend “sellout sale”: Votes for the Republican budget proposal to end Medicare’s guarantee and slash Pell Grant funding and votes to support government funding for companies that violate the Fair Labor Standards Act and votes.

“Labor Day Weekend is an important remindercurbelosellout2 that  Congressman Carlos Curbelo has repeatedly sold out working families in South Florida,” said Jermaine House of DCCC.

“From attempting to slash Pell Grant funding to working to end Medicare’s guarantee, Rep. Curbelo gives new meaning to ‘sellout’ each and every day. The release of these print and digital sellout coupons will highlight his betrayal of hardworking families.”

The other names cut and paste into what Ladra will guess are carbon copy statements are:

  • Rep. Jeff Denham in California’s 10th District
  • Rep. David Valadao in California’s 21st District
  • Rep. Steve Knight in California’s 25th District
  • Rep. Carlos Curbelo in Florida’s 26th District
  • Rep. Rod Blum in Iowa’s 1st District
  • election2016Rep. David Young in Iowa’s 3rd District
  • Rep. Robert Dold in Illinois’ 10th District
  • Rep. Mike Bost in Illinois’ 12th District
  • Rep. Bruce Poliquin in Maine’s 2nd District
  • Rep. Dan Benishek in Michigan’s 1st District
  • Rep Tim Walberg in Michigan’s 7th District
  • Rep. Mike Bishop in Michigan’s 8th District
  • Rep. John Kline in Minnesota’s 2nd District
  • Rep. Cresent Hardy in Nevada’s 4th District
  • Rep. Frank Guinta in New Hampshire’s 1st District
  • Rep. Lee Zeldin in New York’s 1st District
  • Rep. Ryan Costello in Pennsylvania’s 6th District
  • Rep. Patrick Meehan in Pennsylvania’s 7th District

All of them are incumbents that the DCCC sees as vulnerable in seats that could be flippable in 2016.

  1. He’s exactly what he looks like, a Wiesel! Another money hungry, back stabbing, lying, two-face, wanna bee politician who all has really done was help destroy the Miami Dade School System and only gets elected here thanks to the ballot machine mafia that controls this Dade Republic.

    He’s a rodent that’s about to get Raid poured all over him because of how shady he is. Bob Menendez is a saint compared to this BOZO, the Feds should be all over this guy and his dealings. B
