State GOP Chairman Fergus Cullen Calls on Rep. Paul Hodes to Apologize for His Ridiculing of Sen. McCain’s War Injuries
CONCORD – New Hampshire Republican Party Chairman Fergus Cullen released the following statement on Paul Hodes’ personal attacks on John McCain’s war injuries and Joe Biden’s admission that these tactics by the Obama-Biden campaign were “terrible:”
“Even Joe Biden had the decency to admit his campaign made a mistake in attacking John McCain for physical disabilities caused by his war injuries. Will Congressman Paul Hodes have the decency to apologize for his personal insults directed at Senator McCain, or is all their talk about a setting a new tone for politics just rhetoric? I call upon Hodes to publicly apologize immediately for his outrageous comments.”

Quote of the Day
"Last June we were promised by the Republican National Committee and McCain HQ's that we would be consulted on campaign strategy in New Hampshire. I guess that promise was as empty as the head of the person responsible for creating political strategy in New Hampshire. What can we expect next -- phone jamming calls on election day? Thanks guys."
