Nelson tells @TedBarrettCNN he's worried "this legislation will adversely impact Main Street when the focus needs to be on Wall Street"

Not only he is a scumbag, but he is a bloody liar as well!
The fact he sports a "D" after his name is no reason to vote for him in November.

A Dem most of the time I don't believe he has any concern about mainstreet. He didn't have to vote for the final bill but he should have voted to move it forward and that is all we needed from him tonight. The weasel.

24. Did he elaborate about how this bill would "adversely affect Main Street?"
Edited on Mon Apr-26-10 10:35 PM by Proud Liberal Dem
Was he even ASKED to elaborate? Something tells me he probably said this and whoever was interviewing just accepted BS like this as gospel, right? :eyes: :banghead:
