Murphy Campaign Slams McMahon for Acception Donation from Donald Trump
Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Chris Murphy is slamming Republican opponent Linda McMahon for accepting a donation from “Birther-in-Chief,” Donald Trump.
“That’s right, the man who led the charge to see President Obama’s birth certificate, report cards, and test scores has set his sights on Connecticut’s Senate seat,” Murphy campaign manager Kenny Curran said in a fundraising email sent to supporters this morning.
Murphy is asking for $20 donations to offset Trump’s $5,000 contribution to McMahon.

Here’s a suggestion…Why don’t we ignore the ultra-left Murphy and forget about Shays OR McMahon and contribute to the one candidate that everyone who meets him likes because he’s smart and capable and not in this for himself and that is Brian K. Hill. I would ask you that instead of just blindly name-calling to take a moment and decide for yourself and visit http://www.briankhill.com. Listen to what he has to say and the real reasons that he’s running and if you agree then make a contribution. If not…well then be happy with who you get…
This going to be alot like year when the haters of the middleclass like Dick Army put up over $800,000in 2010 and Trump is doing now in lining up against Chris Murphy And I believe that the middleclass people are going to stand with Chris Murphy to fight off this attack by the ruling class. They just want to keep us do down. It did not happen 2010 and we will make sure it does not happen this year. Chris Murphy saved my job and has always help the average guy and we will help him.
