Mark Udall, A Key Undecided Super-Delegate, Blasts Hillary's Gas Tax Holiday
Here's a bit more evidence that Hillary's insistence that members of Congress declare whether they're "with us or against us" on her gas tax holiday proposal risks causing friction with them at a time when she's courting them as super-delegates.
Rep. Mark Udall, who's running for Senate in Colorado and is undecided in the presidential race, has just come out against the proposal in very strong terms indeed:
"Senator Clinton claimed yesterday that I either stand with her on this proposal or stand with the oil companies. To that I say: I stand with the families of Colorado, who aren't looking for bumper sticker fixes that don't fix anything, but for meaningful change that brings real relief and a new direction for our energy policy. We can't afford more Washington-style pandering while families keep getting squeezed."It is exactly the kind of short-sighted Washington game that keeps us from getting real results to our energy problem."
Coming from a key undecided super-delegate, that's some harsh language. And it bears a striking resemblance to Obama's criticism of her proposal, too.
