New Dem TV ad: Cuccinelli ‘happy’ with Tea Party government shutdown

AFP

Polls show Virginia voters didn’t like the 16-day federal government shutdown, and that the bulk of those voters blame Republicans for the shutdown.

A new Democratic Party of Virginia TV ad, “Happy With It,” will remind voters on Election Day that Republican governor nominee Ken Cuccinelli was, well, happy with it.

Ken Cuccinelli may want Virginians to forget the detrimental impacts of the shutdown and his support for shutdown architect Ted Cruz, but voters won’t soon forget that Cuccinelli sided with the Tea Party against Virginia families,” said Democratic Party of Virginia spokesman Brian Coy. “The choice for Virginians on Tuesday is clear: vote for Terry McAuliffe and the mainstream Democratic ticket and make sure Virginia always comes first.”
