“When homes are doubling in price in every six years and incomes are increasing by a mere one percent per year, Fannie’s mission is of paramount importance,” Senator Jack Reed, a Rhode Island Democrat, lectured Mr. Mudd at a Congressional hearing in 2006. “In fact, Fannie and Freddie can do more, a lot more.”

Bob and his lovely wife Barbara in Narragansett

Bob Tingle is running a long shot grassroots campaign against liberal Senator Reed. He is a pro-life, pro-gun, pro-energy independence conservative who is actually a working man. If anyone can offer help or volunteer to work on his campaign in RI then please contact him. He needs any help he can get and more than a little encouragement. Bob had this to say about Lincoln Chafee who called Sarah Palin a cocky wacko.

"I think Sarah Palin is great !! Believe it or not, I predicted McCain would pick her. To me, it seemed like a no-brainer.
Lincoln Chafee is a buffoon." 

Also Bob does not support the bailout and reported this from RI

"Reed has been getting serious heat from former Providence Mayor, Buddy Cianci, about sitting on the Banking Committee while taking $2.7 million in contributions from the banking industry. Mayor Cianci has the most popular radio talk show in Rhode Island. Channel 10, Rhode Island's #1 TV station, is trying to set up a debate between Reed and myself. Reed has been keeping an extremely low profile since the financial crisis began. He is the Chairman of the Senate Subcommittee on Securities, Investment and Insurance."
