As Fellow Democrats & Republicans Call For Weiner’s Resignation, Donnelly Remains Silent

Continues To Cling To Weiner Campaign Cash, Stand By Lewd New York Rep As he continues to posture himself on a wide variety of issues in advance of an uphill U.S. Senate bid, liberal U.S. Rep. Joe Donnelly (D-IN) has remained conspicuously silent on the explosive controversy regarding his friend, campaign benefactor, and colleague U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner’s (D-NY) lewd online behavior. In the face of Republican calls for Weiner’s resignation, Donnelly’s boss, House Democrat Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), asked for an ethics investigation into Weiner’s behavior – after which Donnelly’s fellow House Democrats Betty Sutton (D-OH) and Tim Walz (D-MN) dumped thousands of dollars in campaign cash they took from Weiner.  And reports today show that even former DNC Chairman Tim Kaine is now calling for Weiner’s resignation. But Joe Donnelly continues to hold on to the $5,000 in campaign cash he took from Weiner, standing by his friend…


Will Donnelly Dump Campaign Cash From Lewd New York Rep?

Took Thousands Of Dollars In Campaign Cash From Disgraced Congressman As liberal U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) finally admits to his lewd and offensive online behavior after more than a week of denials – and as House Democrat leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) calls for an ethics investigation into the matter – does liberal U.S. Rep. and Democrat Senate candidate Joe Donnelly (D-IN) plan to return the $5,000 he took from his friend Weiner in order to fund his political campaigns? “We now know that Joe Donnelly’s friend Anthony Weiner was lying, and did in fact engage in this lewd online behavior.  So as Donnelly’s boss Nancy Pelosi calls for an ethics investigation, will Donnelly tell Hoosiers whether he plans to hold on to the $5,000 in campaign cash he took from Weiner?” said National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) Communications Director Brian Walsh today.


Unemployment Rises To 9.1% In Wake Of Donnelly & Obama’s Failed $787 Billion Stimulus

In yet another reminder that President Obama and liberal U.S. Rep. Joe Donnelly’s (D-IN) $787 billion stimulus failed to create jobs while driving our national debt past $14.3 trillion, the U.S. Department of Labor reports today that national unemployment has risen again to 9.1 percent. Today’s rise in unemployment is just the latest development to highlight the failure of Obama and Donnelly’s tax-and-spend economic policies in Washington.  While Congressman Donnelly and the Obama Administration promised their $787 billion stimulus would create millions of new jobs and keep national unemployment below 8 percent, the United States has actually lost more than 1.8 million jobs since Donnelly helped his Washington party bosses ram it into law – and national unemployment has remained above 8 percent now for 28 consecutive months. “As the unemployment rate rises to 9.1 percent, Hoosiers are reminded once again that the Obama-Donnelly agenda of reckless spending has failed…


NRSC Statement On Joe Donnelly

“For Hoosiers Who Like Higher Taxes, A Record Debt & ObamaCare, They Will Love Joe Donnelly” National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) Communications Director Brian Walsh issued the following statement in response to reports that liberal U.S. Representative Joe Donnelly (D-IN) will announce for the U.S. Senate in Indiana tomorrow: “Just months after voters overwhelmingly rejected Brad Ellsworth’s liberal policies, Joe Donnelly wants to sell Hoosiers on that exact same big-spending, job-killing Washington agenda. We welcome him into the race and look forward to him campaigning side-by-side with President Obama. “Just like Ellsworth, Donnelly has been a partisan rubber stamp for liberal Democrat leaders in Washington, helping them ram through ObamaCare and the failed $787 billion stimulus debacle. Hoosiers have made it clear that they’re not interested in more reckless spending, tax hikes and out-of-control debt in Washington – but Democrats like Joe Donnelly have long ignored the voices of Indiana’s families and…
