McCaskill Staff “Interviews” Constituent
April 16th, 2012 · No Comments
This is so pathetically phony that it’s really sad. How convenient that “moderate” Claire’s staff found a constituent to interview that is a female “registered Republican who has democratic leanings” that is a business owner “outraged at Rush Limbaugh’s comments.” Every group that Claire is losing badly in her quest for re-election is represented in […]
