Even after he was exposed by multiple media reports, including a bombshell investigation by CBS Miami, Murphy continues to lie to voters about working as a CPA and owning a small business. Florida voters just can’t trust Patrick Murphy to tell the truth.
The ad is part of a significant NRSC ad buy in Florida and begins running today in the Tampa and Orlando media markets.
“Patrick Murphy is an empty suit who couldn’t manage to tell the truth even if he had a permission slip from his father. Murphy lied about being a small business owner, lied about being a CPA, and simply can’t be trusted to be honest with the people of Florida. His chronic falsehoods and embellishments have disqualified him from representing Florida families in any capacity.” – Greg Blair, NRSC spokesman
