Biden For Scott Murphy

Think the 20 Congressional District race has national importance?
Today Vice President Joe Biden cut a radio ad for Democratic candidate Scott Murphy, a day after President Obama endorsed Murphy in an email to supporters.
Republican candidate James Tedisco, meanwhile, picked up the endorsement of the New York Post, which says “In his 27 years in the Assembly, he’s shown an appreciation for fiscal restraint and tax relief—something needed in Washington now more than ever.”
Here’s the script on Biden’s ad:
“This is Vice President Joe Biden. As a graduate of Syracuse Law School, I not only root for the orange, I root for Upstate New York as well. That’s why this special election you’ll be holding next Tuesday, March 31st is so important to me.
“I’m supporting Scott Murphy for Congress, and so is President Obama. Scott’s a businessman who helped create over 1,000 jobs. He knows people have to work together to get things done, and he’ll work with Democrats and Republicans in Congress to get things done for Upstate New York.
That’s why Scott supports our economic recovery plan, because it means 76,000 jobs for Upstate and funding for schools, which helps keep property taxes down. We have a lot of work to do, and Scott will help get it done. So I hope you’ll vote next Tuesday. And I hope you’ll join President Obama and me, Joe Biden, in supporting Scott Murphy. He’s a businessman who knows how to create jobs for Upstate New York.”

its supposed to be a republican district..i have my doubts
tedisco is a blow hard they should ran john faso.
the tedisco campaign is falling apart. he should have a double digit lead in this district. pathetic that he’s poised to lose.
He’s still trying to parlay the laughable hobby horse of his Division Three basketball glory days into higher and higher public office. At this point however, the politics of the alternative candidate is even scarier. Hold your nose and vote for Tedisco.
