Republicans Aim to Bury Sean Eldridge, Strike a Blow for America

The National Republican Campaign Committee is finally running ads against Sean Eldridge in New York’s 19th district. This is a positive development for America, which will be dealt a serious blow if Eldridge loses his race by fewer than 30 points. Mere victory is not enough; utter humiliation must be inflicted.

In case you've forgotten, Eldridge is the 28-year-old husband of Chris Hughes, who made millions of dollars by being Mark Zuckerberg’s randomly assigned roommate at Harvard and for pioneering the Facebook "poke" button.

Eldridge, who majored in political science at Brown, thinks he deserves a seat in Congress. Doesn’t really matter which one. His husband has already purchased multiple mansions in neighboring districts, and if Eldridge isn’t totally annihilated in November, he will probably move somewhere else and try again. For the sake of America’s future, that can’t be allowed to happen.

A recent poll shows Eldridge trailing by 24 points. That's not nearly enough, as every self-respecting human being should realize. Let’s hope this new NRCC ad, which accurately describes Eldridge as an entitled, partisan liberal who holds fundraisers with Nancy Pelosi at his multi-million dollar loft in SoHo, can help push that margin closer to 40 points. For America.

Here is the ad, which will run for two weeks at a cost of about $370,000, according to THE POLITICO.
