The Whiny Ass Titty Baby Party

Are there any Republicans who aren't whiny ass titty babies?

Lois Murphy took her congressional campaign to Ursinus College yesterday and announced her plan for ethics and lobbying reform.

Before 25 students in a political science class, Murphy said that if elected, she would accept no travel or gifts from lobbyists, nor would she meet with them in secret.

...

Gerlach campaign spokesman Mark Campbell said that none of Murphy's ideas was original, adding that Gerlach was already working on many of them, although he declined to be specific.

He also called Murphy a "hypocrite," saying she was at one time a lobbyist representing special interests, an accusation that Murphy said was wrong.

"I did work for NARAL Pro-Choice America, but I was an attorney, not a lobbyist," she said. Lobbyists can serve a valuable role in educating legislators about issues, but they need to act ethically when they do it, she said.


National Journal says Gerlach's one of the most vulnerable. Murphy lost 51-49 last time. Consider setting up a recurring donation to help Murphy, maybe $10-20 a month 'till election day.
