Vermont Republicans are circulating a Burlington Free Press editorial that is lending support to the economic stimulus package put forth by Republican Gov. Jim Douglas.
With just two weeks left in the legislative session, the editorial is urging lawmakers to “do something to help Vermonters get through our current economic crisis, and do it before going home for the year.”
"They truly are mavericks and bring a different type of politics to Washington. That is a message that I think will sell in Vermont, that it's not same-old, same-old." -- Former state House Speaker Walt Freed on John McCain and Sarah Palin's presidential campaign ticket
