Chamber Attacking Hodes

[ccharles000]

The Chamber of Commerce has gone up with an ad backed by a large ad buy hitting Rep. Paul Hodes (D) in the New Hampshire Senate race.

The ad is an indication that the Chamber, which has pledged to spend $75M in this year's elections, is going to heavily invest in New Hampshire.

The ad attacks Hodes for supporting "out of control spending" that has helped push America's debt to $13 trillion." It also goes after Hodes' support of health care reform and cap-and-trade.

The Chamber spent almost $1M on the ad -- for both production and putting it on the air -- according to it's FEC filing. The Chamber declined to disclose the exact size of the buy, other than to say it's "sizable" and that the group plans to spend more money in NH -- which is, no doubt, bad news for Hodes.

1. Then Hodes should point out that the US Chamber of Commerce lobbied on behalf of TARP

Tell the voters of NH that the Chamber doesn't mind having their tax dollars taken from their pockets and put into the pockets of Wall Street titans who wrecked the financial system.

2. Anyone here from NH should help Paul respond. He's one of the good ones.

4. This is a good sign

It means that the GOP and it's allies are concerned about this seat. The Chamber wouldn't put money down attacking Hodes if he didn't stand a good chance.
