The Congressional Leadership Fund felt left out—Joins the chorus with another round of ‘The Medicare Lie’

The NRCC has been running ads for a while now about Gwen Graham, saying that she supports Obamacare, even though it cuts Medicare by hundreds of billions of dollars.

"I don't want to take a position in advance of actually knowing who the leadership will be at the time."

And in September, Eldridge dodged when asked if he would support Pelosi. Politico points out that Eldridge and Pelosi are "close friends."

"I don't want to take a position in advance of actually knowing who the leadership will be at the time."

Graham said she wants to be viewed as a moderate who would help end the partisanship that divides Washington.

This may concern DCCC Chairman Steve Israel, whose PAC donated $1,000 to Graham's campaign:

As well as House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, whose PAC donated $5,000 to Graham's campaign:
