Oy, vey

Congresswman Anne Northup has stooped to an entirely all-time low level.
U.S. Rep. Anne Northup lashed out at her Democratic opponent Thursday, accusing John Yarmuth of a slew of ethical and legal violations as Election Eay draws near and both campaigns acknowledge a tight race.

Northup, R-Ky., said Yarmuth lacks the ethical standards to serve in public office because he repeatedly misled voters about how his campaign signs and door hangars were made, failed to pay taxes on his campaign workers' salaries, then dismissed questions about both.

"John Yarmuth is a congressional scandal waiting to happen," Northup said at a news conference at her campaign headquarters in Louisville. "This race is about ethics."
What is up with the REPUBLICANS saying that their Democratic opponents lack the ethics to serve in Congress? First, Lewis attacked Weaver. Now Northup attacks Yarmuth.

If I recall, didn't Anne use her congressional powers to help her husband's business out with an FCC regulation.

This race is about ethics: the lack of ethics of Anne Northup and other Republicans. It's about wanting two more years of the same rubber stamp leadership in Congress, or a change in leadership altogether.

Anne Northup, give me a break!

In only a few short weeks, we will elect a DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY.
