Blanche Lincoln’s Genius Pitch to Arkansas Democrats: I Opposed the Public Option; Also, Democrats Suck

Written by

Take a look at this brand new Lincoln campaign spot. I’m trying to decide what the most tone-deaf aspect of it is.

Is it that:

She brags about her opposition to the public option when 83% of Arkansas Democrats and 56% of Arkansans overall are in favor of it.
She compares the public option, which would help middle and working class people have access to affordable health care, to TARP.
She accuses the Obama administration and the Democratic Congress of literally throwing away the American people’s money.
She claims to be accountable to “Arkansas” and not “her party” — which implies the Democratic Party doesn’t give a shit about Arkansas.

One Tough Lady? Let’s make Blanche One Former Senator.
