Hodes came under Emmanuel watch
Filed under Uncategorized by kevin landrigan at 11:49 am
Newly re-elected, NH Congressman Paul Hodes figures
prominently in a national profile about who will become the next
“bad cop” now that Illinois Congressman Rahm Emmanuel will
become White House chief of staff.
“The Hill” story relates an exchange with Hodes who was feeling
pretty good about having been able to return the dog of a soldier
killed in Iraq to his New Hampshire family.
“Good job. Now what have you done for your other 649,000
constituents?” Emmanuel demanded.
Hodes served as president of the freshman class, a group that
Emmanuel kept close tabs on since he had engineered the
Democratic takeover of the House as chairman of the House
Congressional Campaign Committee.
