Charlie Wilson is interested in running for his old seat again

January 10, 2009

 Good Afternoon,

The Cleveland Plain Dealer over the weekend reported that former Ohio Congressman Charlie Wilson is interested in running for his old seat again. As you cover this latest development, please consider the following comment from the National Republican Congressional Committee.

“As a loyal ally to Nancy Pelosi, Charlie Wilson helped enact an agenda that hurt our nation’s coal and energy industries, raised taxes on small business owners and spent billions of dollars despite a looming debt crisis. Former Rep. Charlie Wilson’s biggest problem is that Ohioans rejected his partisan, big government record in 2010, and with President Obama at the top of the ticket in 2012 they’ll do it again.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Andrea Bozek
