It’s time for your daily reminder that Dems are the compassionate party:
Seriously, dude? You really wanna go there?
Shameful: This winter storm has been deadly but @MarkWarner used it to make a partisan attack on Republicans: http://t.co/YzweCGpB8h #vasen

The tweet stuck around for 26 seconds before being deleted. In the grand scheme of things, 26 seconds may not seem like much, but in the Twitterverse, it’s practically an eternity. Warner’s attempt to walk it back proved to be nothing more than an exercise in futility:
Oops. Staff #fail on a snow day. Removed as quickly as possible. Enjoy the rest of your snow day.

That’s some “staff” you’ve got there, Senator. Despite what you may want, we won’t forget what we saw.
#DoucheTweets RT @MarkWarner Just a matter of time: waiting for the @VA_GOP to claim winter storm was caused by The Affordable Care Act.

You can delete 'em all you want @MarkWarner But you can't hide from your own jackassery! http://t.co/Pc5wDwEST4 @VA_GOP

@MarkWarner Snow didn’t cause my premium and deductible to double…Obamacare did. Thanks, asshole.

.@MarkWarner Is “Oops” an apology? It doesn’t sound like one. You don’t take swipes at people whose prems/deducts doubled b/c of your vote

.@MarkWarner 6 mln people had their policies cancelled & #ACA has only 3 mln enrollees—>uninsured up 3 mln. Is that an “oops”, too?

Update:
Can Warner blame this on his staff, too?
Hey Sen. @MarkWarner, less tweeting offensive jokes & a little more shoveling would be appreciated by your neighbors pic.twitter.com/Iq6LOkdy4r

According to Politico, NRSC spokesman Brad Dayspring confirms that that’s Warner’s home sidewalk.
@NRSC @MarkWarner oh so proud of my Senator!!! …NOT
