The
Hornell Evening Tribune covers Randy Kuhl and Eric Massa's positions on gas prices. This is a good story and worth reading in its entirety. It's also notable for this Kuhl quote about the McCain proposal for a gas tax holiday:
“The effect I’m concerned about is loss of revenue,” Kuhl said. “That
loss would be covered by the general fund, so there would be a
lessening of the impact, but I don’t like the idea of building future
debt for our children.”
Kuhl, the Republican in the race, rarely acknowledges the massive national debt.
The Wellsville Daily Reporter
has a story with photo of Kuhl presenting a DAR good citizen award. Some commenters on earlier fundraising stories have noted that it appears that Kuhl doesn't want to fundraise. But in the Southern Tier, where free publicity like this story is plentiful for an incumbent, perhaps Kuhl's decision to spend more time at photo ops rather than on the phone begging for money makes some sense. And remember, this publicity is all on Uncle Sam's dime.
