Democrats volley back with Valentine's Day cards mocking GOP

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has posted a slideshow of imagined Valentine's Day cards to their committee website, the latest volley in attempts by both parties to politicize the annual romantic holiday.

"You might have a drinking problem, but we will still be yours," one card labeled from House Republicans quips, a reference to Rubio's now-infamous swig of water during his response to the State of the Union.

Another valentine addressed to the Koch Brothers proclaims "your donations may be undisclosed, but our love in on full display."

The fourteen different cards also imagine conversations between the GOP and the gun lobby, "birthers," and radio host Rush Limbaugh.

"Even as most of the country isn’t feeling the love for House Republicans, John Boehner and his Tea Party colleagues still have a few 'I love yous' of their own to send this Valentine’s Day," said DCCC spokesman Jesse Ferguson in a statement.

The cards serve partially as a response to a website debuted by the Republican National Committee earlier in the day. That page allows supporters to send virtual valentines that feature swipes at prominent Democrats like President Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
