Alan Grayson teams up with Karl Rove. This should tell you everything you need to know.
Liberal U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Orlando, and the American Crossroads super PAC, which was co-founded by former George W. Bush operative Karl Rove, are both taking aim at the Senate aspirations of U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Jupiter.
Murphy, with strong Democratic Party establishment support, is running against Grayson in Florida’s 2016 Democratic Senate primary. Many Republicans see Murphy as a tougher general election opponent, so it’s not surprising that American Crossroads and the conservative Club For Growth have taken shots at him.
Grayson’s campaign and American Crossroads both promoted a liberal blogger’s claim that Murphy was repeatedly snubbed by Hillary Clinton when she visited South Florida for three fundraisers and a rally on Friday.
But the snub story is full of holes — including, most conspicuously, the fact that Clinton told donors at one fundraiser that she’s “so proud” of Murphy.
Grayson’s campaign on Saturday — and American Crossroads today — sent out emails linking to a blog post claiming that Murphy was “barred from entering” a Friday fundraiser for Clinton at the home of Fred Cunningham in North Palm Beach; then ignored by Clinton at a public rally in Davie in which she gave a shout-out to U.S. Rep. Ted Deutch, D-Boca Raton; then similarly turned away at two later fundraisers.

At DWT we've been writing about how right-wing fake Democrat Patrick Murphy (FL) was one of only seven Democrats-- all corrupt conservatives from the Blue Dogs and/or New Dems-- to vote for the establishment of the Republican Party's Get Hillary Committee, which started out as a Benghazi committee and is now being used as a committee to promote a GOP-manufactured e-mail "scandal," led by Republican pinhead Trey Gowdy of South Carolina. Although it has now been confirmed by bumbling imbecile Kevin McCarthy, every other Democrat knew that that's all the Benghazi committee ever was meant to be: a platform for slandering Hillary Clinton.
At the time of the vote, Pelosi, Hoyer and Clyburn let it be known that a vote in favor would be looked at by the House Democratic leadership very negatively and urged every Democrat to vote no. And every Democrat did vote no except for the seven who were always giving faux "bipartisan" cover to the House Republicans for their crackpot bills and resolutions:
• Patrick Murphy (FL)
• Kyrsten Sinema (AZ)
• Collin Peterson (MN)
• John Barrow (GA), driven from Congress the following year
• Mike McIntyre (NC), driven from Congress the following year
• Nick Rahall (WV), driven from Congress the following year
• Ron Barber (AZ), driven from Congress the following year
I was on a media call with Alan Grayson and half a dozen Florida journalists Friday morning when he warned that Murphy's record of siding with Republicans, and in particular his vote to support the now thoroughly discredited Benghazi committee, could hurt the eventual Democratic presidential nominee in Florida.

How much does Hillary love Patrick?
