The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is building a firewall in the final stretch, dumping money into five competitive races that had gotten less attention in previous weeks.
This week, the DCCC spent $1.5 million on ads for Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), after spending nothing in the previous week, and dropped $653,865 to protect another vulnerable incumbent, Rep. John Adler (D-N.J.), against his challenge from former NFL offensive tackle Jon Runyan.

TOPICS: Breaking News; Government; Politics/Elections; US: New Jersey; US: Virginia
KEYWORDS: christie; jersey; obama; palin; runyan
Runyan has been making major gains on Adler recently and has the backing of Gov Christie. The DCCC can spend and make the biggest firewall they want, but this six foot seven inch three hundred fifty pounder sees his goal and
there is no wall that is going to stop him.
Runyan Goal Line Charge

this article would be funny if it weren’t so dishonest
building “firewalls”??? yeah right, sounds more like a few desperate efforts to salvage something, anything at all
and Patrick Murphy’s campaign was merely “aggressive” in sending out dishonest fraudulent flyers making people think they had to send a ballot app to MURPHY’s own campaign cut-out in order to maintain their voting registration? That’s FRAUD and that scumbag needs to go down in flames.

Firewall? Too late. All they can do now is pee on the smoldering ashes.

They’re not firewalls, they’re fire breaks.
Dems keep cutting them, the forest fire called the tea party keeps jumping the breaks . . .
Make sure all your friends, neighbors, associates know what’s at stake this Tuesday . . . YOU are America’s “ground game” . . .

Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-Pa.) also got some help from Washington after slugging it out without the DCCC. The committee put $557,613 into that race, in which Murphys trailing campaign is getting particularly aggressive it sent out mailers telling voters they would lose their voting privileges if they didnt submit absentee ballot request forms, prompting dozens of people to call the local elections board in a panic.

The so called “firewall” the DCCC is building is nothing more then outright lies. The ad against Fiminian the DCCC is running here is built on a series of lies and innuendos-this coming from the Washington Post. I suppose the DCCC believes that desperate times calls for desperate measures. And they're desperate.

These idiots still don’t understand what is about to happen, and even sadder, why it’s about to happen!!!
To: Enchante
I happen to know one of the candidates running in my district and know their record. I’ve been seeing OUTRAGEOUS lies being told in the Demorat opponent’s literature. The kind of lies that in more “genteel” times would have called for a duel. It’s sickening, really.

This week, the DCCC spent $1.5 million on ads for Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) LOL!! This, among many others, was supposed to be a "safe" seat. Bite it, Dems!!

These idiots still dont understand what is about to happen, and even sadder, why its about to happen!!!Oh, they know why it's about to happen. It's because voters are stupid and are unaware of the great job their Democrat overlords have done while in office.

DCCC building firewall on close races
A 'Firewall'? Okay.
But too bad for the commieRATS, that per UL(1) a 'Firewall' only has a max rating of Three Hours(2). And by my calculations time has already run out.
(1) Underwriters Laboratories
2) and that's the truth.

How many of these “firewall” stories have we seen this election season? Funny how the perimeter to their firewall keeps shrinking!
