Bob Etheridge is holding a BBQ dinner on September 29th, but not in Dunn or Smithfield or Rocky Mount. He’s holding it a block from Capitol Hill. And he’s charging $2,500 for a plate of barbeque. Now let’s guess no one – not even in Washington – is silly enough to pay $2,500 for a [...]

Obama-Etheridge Policies Crushing the Middle Class
Bob Etheridge just sent out an email attacking me claiming “my opponent‘s economic plan would crush middle class families and reward Wall Street” – That’s pretty brazen from a man who’s accepted $500,000 in cash from special interest PACs, then voted to bail out everyone from Wall Street bankers to the United Auto Workers Union.

He would also know that the middle class – he claims to be working for – is suffering greatly in today’s economy.
