Opponent slams John Boehner’s “electile dysfunction”
House Speaker John Boehner has a habit of mocking his last name's likeness to a certain part of the human anatomy. But in a new ad, his primary opponent, J.D. Winteregg, has taken the joke to a whole new level.
"Your electile dysfunction, it could be a question of blood flow. Sometimes when a politician has been in D.C. too long, it goes to his head, and they just can't seem to get the job done," the narrator says.
If elected - and "used on a daily basis" - the ad promises that Winteregg "will help you every time the moment is right to have your voice heard on the federal level."
And in closing: "If you have a Boehner lasting longer than 23 years, seek immediate medical attention."
According to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, a group called the Tea Party Leadership Fund has spent more than $300,000 to back Winteregg's quixotic bidagainst Boehner. Winteregg's campaign has raised just over $43,000 this cycle.
