Ron DeSantis Asks if Alan Grayson, Patrick Murphy 'Feel the Bern'

U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., looked to pin down two of his rivals in the U.S. Senate race on Monday over whether they backed U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders. I-Vt., plans on health-care. 

DeSantis asked if U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Fla., and U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Fla., supported Sanders on the issue. 

“With Obamacare failing to deliver on its promises Democrats face a choice: double-down on the Obamacare failure or embrace a massive and costly government-run health care program,” said DeSantis. “The Sanders plan increases federal spending by a whopping $28 trillion, imposes a stiff payroll tax increase on all workers, hikes marginal income tax rates and doubles the death tax.  Patrick Murphy and Alan Grayson need to tell Florida voters whether they will stick with Obamacare's rising premiums and deductibles or whether they will ‘Feel the Burn’ and embrace the Vermont socialist's destructive proposal.  Unless they are willing to break free from big government orthodoxy, they will be choosing between bad and worse."
