UPDATE: Wow! Karen is working this thing. At 8:39 I heard a follow up in which she said something like:
Can you imagine going to a bank and asking for $700,000,000 and not telling them what you were going to do wit the money? That’s what…(etc)
I don’t want to botch it by misquoting her. It was that good.
It was a towfer this morning. Karen’s 7:01 AM clip jabbed Castle for both the bail out and how he operates above his constiuents.
VIDEO: Hartley-Nagle: Bailout handled badly
By Carl Kanefsky
The woman hoping to unseat Congressman Castle in November says she’s opposed to the financial bailout plan supported by Castle, and lots of voters are too.Karen Hartley-Nagle says she wouldn’t have voted for the $700-billion plan, but more importantly, she would have asked Delawareans what they thought before casting her vote, and says she’s getting phone calls and e-mails from voters saying they didn’t get the chance to be heard.
She also says congress handled the vote all wrong…getting the money, and then working out the details of what to do with it.
Video Here Hartley-Nagle says Castle met with the business community to discuss the plan, but didn’t talk to the general public.
Good stuff.
