The link to Politics PA is dated, in that it involves an opponent in a previous race who dropped out of the race. Also, the page it leads to has textual problems. I am removing it. If anyone wants it back, for some reason, that's cool. --Nosimplehiway 05:35, 16 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Weasel Words

edit

In the Political Positions section there are a few areas that seem quite biased. "He supports hard-working people, from factory workers to small-business owners" Implies that others are not hard-working. "He believes in protecting and creating good-paying jobs, reasonable tax cuts" What is a good-paying job, what is a reasonable tax cut? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.234.72.104 (talk) 18:56, 14 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

I don't think this is an example of weasel words, just an example of a poor explanation: I checked the link - http://www.timholden.com/issues - and it says "This district has always been known for its hard-working people -- from factory workers to small-business owners -- Pennsylvanians make up the backbone of America’s economy. Protecting good-paying jobs and creating new ones... Tim is a supporter of reasonable tax cuts." I think it just need to be clarified as a quote and attributed as such. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.188.221.123 (talk) 17:48, 9 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
