VIDEO: Maddow Takes Josh Mandel To Task For His Refusal To Answer Questions, Support Auto Rescue

Maddow Inducts Mandel Into “Child’s Treasury Of Politicians Refusing To Answer Very Simple Questions”

In case you missed it, Josh Mandel’s refusal to support the auto rescue or even answer basic questions about it put him front and center on the Rachel Maddow show last night. Unfortunately for Ohio’s King of Liars, something tells us this wasn’t the kind of national TV coverage he was looking for.

WATCH Rachel Maddow take Josh Mandel to task for refusing to answer questions and support the auto industry.

“While Sen. Sherrod Brown was leading the charge to rescue the American auto industry, Josh Mandel was silent, refusing to support the rescue package which helped to protect nearly 850 thousand industry-related jobs across Ohio,” said Sadie Weiner, spokesman for Friends of Sherrod Brown. “Josh Mandel’s refusal to support the auto rescue to this day is a slap in the face to the 850 thousand Ohioans whose jobs and livelihoods are tied to the industry, and while he continues ducking and dodging to avoid answering questions about the bold rescue package Sherrod fought for, he continues proving to Ohioans that he’s a politician who can’t be trusted.”
