Representative Eric Massa, the Democrat elected to New York’s 29th congressional district last year, has apparently already forgotten what the title “Representative” means. Speaking at a convention in Pennsylvania for left-wing bloggers over the weekend, Rep. Massa declared that he “will vote adamantly against the interests of my district if I actually think what I’m doing is going to be helpful.”
His comment has created a firestorm of opposition in his district and has received national media attention. It will be interesting to see what sort of backlash his controversial remarks may generate and if it will affect his bid for re-election next year. Massa and his Republican opponent, Corning Mayor Tom Reed, have yet to make any statements regarding the controversy.
