The “Ed McMahon” Syndrome
The Republican Herald discusses Rep. Tim Holden’s earmarks, which his challenger, Toni Gilhooley labels “Ed McMahon” syndrome because of his desire to hand out large cardboard checks (a phrase the Club for Growth thinks will catch on).
Holden quotes directly from the Talking Points for Earmark Defenders. Read Andy Roth’s repudiation of those talking points here.
