NRSC Jabs Democratic Senate Hopeful Patrick Murphy

The National Republican Senate Committee (NRSC) jabbed U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Fla., who is running for the Senate in 2016. 

The NRSC noted Murphy said “America has topped the world, in many ways, [in] greed and selfish behavior" in an interview. 

“Privileged Patrick Murphy is banking a hefty taxpayer-funded salary despite his status as one of the least effective members of Congress – and now he’s asking voters for a promotion,” Greg Blair, a spokesman for the NRSC, said on Wednesday. “Murphy is certainly an expert in greed and selfish behavior, but he might have a little more credibility if he fought for anything in Washington other than keeping his schedule clear.”
