Dem Trivedi with First Ad in 6th CD Race

Dr. Manan Trivedi, the Democratic nominee for Pennsylvania's Sixth District U.S. House seat, suggests cutting the pay of members of Congress in the race's first ad. He says it's "not fair" for MCs to get pay raises while Pennsyvlanians are getting pay cuts.

    interesting how Trivedi doesn't mention anything about being a democrat in this ad. This must be by design. His web site indicates he was all for the stimulus and health care plan and I don't buy that he is for cutting anything. To think any democrat would not go along with this president is laughable.
