A MAN IF HIS WORD? PA State Senate Race -
Matt Smith not only believes in higher business taxes (his words) BUT deceived the voters.
In order to best his competitor in the last election, he pledged not to take the State Pension.
Now
He's asked to retroactively include that first term -It is his right-but voters must wonder about his word. He claims that the pledge was just for the first term -Doesn't make it Better, now that he's including it.
"I was for it before I was against it"-Reminds me of John Kerry-except backwards.
A MAN OF HIS WORD! RAJA WILL NOT RENEGE!"
