On Monday, Foster’s Daily Democrat in New Hampshire published a blistering op-ed piece attacking Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) by former House Speaker Marshall Cobleigh.
“As is usual with poll-driven politicians, Jeanne Shaheen is running television commercials and writing op-ed pieces addressing the dominant problem facing America — skyrocketing gasoline prices — but providing no real solutions,” the piece began. “Evan worse, anyone who knows her history also knows that during her entire career she has been a big part of the problem.”
There was an unusual wrinkle: Cobleigh died in February 2009. The op-ed was actually a reprint of when it was first published in July 3, 2008.
Brown, of course, is the former senator from Massachusetts now challenging Shaheen in the New Hampshire race for U.S. Senate.
