Farris Blasts Labrador Vote Decision

Democratic challenger Jimmy Farris is criticizing Republican Congressman Raul Labrador for missing 27 votes today to campaign for Republican Mitt Romney in Florida:

“He’s choosing Florida over Idaho,” said Farris. “He’s choosing to ingratiate himself to Mitt Romney in the hopes of getting a new job, instead of doing the job he already has. He doesn’t think that ignoring his constituents will cost him the election. The citizens of the First District have no voice in Congress today – because Labrador is busy interviewing for his next government job.”

Question: Has Labrador given Democratic challenger Jimmy Farris an opening here to score political points?
