The Democratic National Committee is now rolling out a localized version of its “Republicans Want To End Medicare” ad, targeting individual House GOP members over a proposal from back in April to privatize Medicare for future generations of retirees (everyone currently 54 years and younger).
That proposal failed on a roll call vote, with every Democrat present and even 38 Republicans voting against it. And now, the Dems are using it as political fodder to go after some of those 137 House GOPers who did vote for it. Here’s the version attacking its main sponsor, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI):
Other localized versions of this ad are also running against Lee Terry (NE), Patrick Tiberi (OH), Mary Bono Mack (CA), Don Young (AK), Michele Bachmann (MN), Jean Schmidt (OH), Erik Paulsen (MN), John Boehner (OH) and Eric Cantor (VA).
