One Florida Democrat source familiar with the state’s political process told TheDC that “Floridians of all stripes — Democrats, Republicans and independents — are rightly concerned about the Republicans fighting to end Medicare.”
The source went on to predict that the Republican mantra for the 2012 election will be: “I am not Paul Ryan.”
When TheDC contacted the campaigns, official or otherwise, of Republican contenders, only former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum publicly attacked Gingrich for his comments…
“This is something every GOP contender will have to deal with,” Reed Galen, a California-based Republican strategist told TheDC. “My guess is you will see most of them be as non-committal as they can be while holding to conservative principles.”
