FL-SEN: DSCC teams up with Debbie Mucarsel-Powell on Rick Scott 'snake' hit

In the stretch run of what some polls say is a very competitive race for Senate despite a strong GOP registration advantage, Democrat Debbie Mucarsel-Powell is getting some outside help in her messaging against first-term incumbent U.S. Sen. Rick Scott.

Mucarsel-Powell is joining with the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) on a new TV spot. Per the Mucarsel-Powell campaign, the “bold new TV ad” scathes “Florida’s ultimate political snake.”

In proof of dedication to the serpentine imagery, the challenger’s operation accuses the Naples Republican of “slithering away” from debate challenges in a press release pumping the paid media, which is part of an “eight-figure buy.”

The ad says Scott is “Florida’s biggest snake” who “stole money from seniors in the biggest Medicare fraud ever” then “slid into the Senate, where he wrote the plan to end Social Security, raise your taxes, and ban abortion.”

“Rick Scott’s a slippery politician who’s been ripping you off. I’m Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, and I approve this message — because your family’s getting squeezed, and it’s time for a senator with a spine,” Mucarsel-Powell says in the close.

He then created another company and pulled the SAME bullshit again! He then flooded the airwaves with ads featuring his mother saying what a wonderful son he is, and all the old fogeys voted him back in as governor—and that second indictment magically disappeared.

He then bought or created a lab under his wife’s name, which he required people to use for drug testing to get food stamps, etc.

We’ve called him Voldemort for years, so the snake insult is fitting.

What is it about these slippery bastards who keep getting away with shit like this over and over and over? *gnashes teeth*
