NH-02: Bass Wants to Get In and... In

( - promoted by William Tucker)

Representative Charlie Bass, today:
Second Congressional District Congressman Charlie Bass (R-NH) tells WMUR  that he will seek re-election next year.
Candidate Charlie Bass, October 2010:
Bass Wants to Get In, Get Out

If the 2nd District sends him back to Congress, Charlie Bass says he will set Washington on a sound fiscal path - and then get out.

"I'm passionate about doing whatever I can over a relatively short period of time to change America, and then I want to go back to what I was doing before," said Bass, a six-term former Republican congressman who has worked in the alternative energy industry since losing a 2006 re-election bid.

Of course, now that a bright light is shining on his shady, revolving door career, maybe life in the Village is for him after all.

Rinse, repeat.

Charlie took the Contract With Murka term limits pledge during his first election to Congress. He has a history of dishonesty when it comes to staying in office.

I forgot to mention that, something I mentioned a lot in 2006, when he broke his contract the first time.

This actually counts as violation number three, since 2010 represented the second time he reneged on it.
