Democrats target C.W. Bill Young in radio ad

NOVEMBER 16, 2009

Democrats have targeted U.S. Rep. C.W. Bill Young in a new radio ad that continues an effort against 32 House Republicans who opposed the health care bill but represent districts won by Barack Obama.

"In last year's historic election, voters in Florida's 10th Congressional District supported President Obama and his call for change," the Democratic National Committee ad goes. "But when it came to fixing our broken health insurance system, Congressman Bill Young voted for more of the same."

A similar ad is being run this week in Miami against Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.
