Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) appeared on MSNBC today, and commented on the New Jersey gubernatorial race — linking Republican nominee to what she called the “shocking sexism” of the GOP.
WassermanSchultz, a breast cancer survivor, blasted Christie’s stance on insurance company mandates, which has been a big part of Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine’s attacks against Christie.
“Well what I’d like to respond to is just to show that the shocking sexism and attitude towards women on the part of the Republican Party, that is wide and deep,” said Wasserman-Schultz. “Chris Christie, their candidate for governor in New Jersey, opposes funding for pre-K and accused Gov. Corzine of supporting baby-sitting. He actually opposes mandates in insurance coverage.”
