Ellmers: Let’s Debate Jobs, Bob

Renee Ellmers, Republican nominee in North Carolina’s Second District challenging seven-term incumbent Congressman Bob Etheridge, issued this statement today:

“Yesterday, Bob Etheridge attacked me, saying I’ll be ‘taking my orders’ on job creation from Governor Sarah Palin. I could point out, in reply, Congressman Etheridge has been taking his instructions on job creation from Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi. As a result, half a million more people have lost jobs. Job creation is a debate I want to have with Bob Etheridge – so I challenge him to stop dodging and agree to a debate on job creation now.”
