Buddy Roemer is certainly far from a top-tier candidate in the weird race for the GOP presidential nomination, but he has been in NH recently and he went after my dreadful congressman, Frank Guinta, for his vote to repeal public funding of presidential campaigns.
Not only did he go after Frank for that, but he brought up an old story that just won't go away:
"It is not lost on Granite State voters that Congressman Guinta was the subject of 2 FEC complaints regarding a loan he issued to his campaign while running for Congress, and which he failed to report," he said. "Guinta's explanation, or lack thereof, is less than compelling according to reports I've read. Whether Guinta's explanation holds any water or not is for the voters and the FEC to decide, but one would think Guinta would be the first to support voluntary public financing of campaigns that help to end corruption."
We've never gotten a straight answer from Frank as to where the mysterious $355,000 bank account that he says he forgot he had and from which he borrowed money for his campaign in 2010. Here's more on the history of that strange campaign transaction.
