Hint: Think Chuck Schumer.

“Extreme”

(Ballot Box) — The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee used the release of House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan’s (R-Wis.) long-term budget Tuesday to apply some early pressure to three GOP senators facing reelection next year.

Framing the Ryan proposal as “an extreme budget plan that protects subsidies for oil companies, but cuts Medicare funding for Massachusetts seniors,” the committee went after its number one target in 2012, Sen. Scott Brown (Mass.).

“Massachusetts seniors did not cause this fiscal mess and it’s downright shameful that Scott Brown would even consider balancing the budget on their backs,” said DSCC spokesman Matt Canter in a statement blasting the Massachusetts Republican.
