Dahlkemper already taking heat

Published by Tim McNulty on .

Kathy Dahlkemper's opponents in the 3rd District are already going after her hard for her support, with the Stupak Seven, of the health care bill last night.

Here's Paul Huber (Who is Paul Huber? Check Early Returns' nifty congressional map here, and click on the "3" in the northwest corner of the state):

“Congresswoman Dahlkemper’s support for the Obama-Pelosi health care takeover legislation is a travesty, yet it should come as no surprise that once again when voters in the Third District were counting on their Representative to stand up for them, Kathy Dahlkemper folded under pressure and sided instead with Nancy Pelosi and her liberal leaders in Congress.

"Dahlkemper's Done," says this statement from Tory Mazzola of the NRCC:

“Today, Kathy Dahlkemper made it clear that she cares more about her Washington leaders than middle-class families and senior citizens in Northwestern Pennsylvania.  And on precious pro-life issues, she caved to a deal that is widely viewed as ineffective and inadequate.  After abandoning her constituents who strongly oppose this government takeover of healthcare, Dahlkemper will hear a loud and clear message on Election Day – find a new job.”
