On Wednesday, local businessman Scott Murphy's campaign for congress highlighted their new television ad that holds 26-year career politician Jim Tedisco accountable for refusing to support President Obama's economic policies and for rewarding one of his biggest campaign contributors with a $100,000 government job just for him at taxpayer expense...
"Whether it's taking credit for creating jobs that Democrats and Republicans said he didn't have a lot to do with or his refusal to support President Obama's economic recovery package that will save or create 76,000 jobs in Upstate New York, Tedisco seems to want to talk about anything other than providing voters with straight and honest answers on the economy.
"For too long career politicians in Albany and Washington - including Assemblyman Tedisco who rewarded one of his biggest campaign contributors with a $100,000 government job just for him at taxpayer expense - have provided special favors for their biggest contributors instead of creating jobs for the people and it's something that folks here are rightfully fed up with and that Tedisco needs to answer for.
Ouch. It is so on.
