Frank Kratovil Refuses To Talk With Constituents

MISSING - Frank Kratovil

First District Rep. Frank Kratovil (D-MD) really holds his constituents in high regard.  He has refused to hold a public town hall meeting with voters for the last year.  His so called meetings with constituents are tightly controlled affairs more akin to campaign events than actually working with constituents.

Now he has gone so far as to REFUSE to talk to a constituent!  Evidently, Frank’s handlers have convinced him that if it isn’t a photo op or it’s not someone handing him a check, then they just aren’t worth Kratovil’s time!

It’s 67 days until the election Frank.  You’re going to have to come out sometime.  The Obama machine won’t be able to put you over the top this year.  You’ll actually have to talk to people.

In the meantime, all we can do is ask:

WHERE’s FRANK?

This is a really silly post.

You offer absolutely no proof of your assertions here Mr Harrison. Why should anyone believe what you say?

he know he does not have to do anything,
Harris lost in a district that Mcain won by 18%, its not the Obama voters that got him in.

What proof do you want?

It's a fact that Frank Kratovil hasn't had a town hall meeting the last year. The video shows Kratovil refusing to talk to a constituent.

He's got to come out sometime. Or ... do you believe that your Congressman has no obligation to meet with his constituents?

He actually came around and knocked on our door last week. I'd rather he go around knocking on doors to have one on one conversations than hold a mass event where I don't get a chance to talk to him.

One of the dumbest posts I've seen in a while.

Oh really, why hasn't he been to my house? I get his stupid election mailings which is paid for by the tax payers but he has come to my house? I think you are lying because you didn't sign your name!!

How ironic for Mr. Grammar to make this post about study halls. Notice the mistakes!!

Didn't Frank Kratovil spend the 15th most money out of Congress on tax payer funded mail! No substitute for being in public!

He probably knows that if he has a town hall meeting it will be mob rule with all the AFP wingnuts shouting out and interrupting any and all who disagree with them. So you only have your organization to blame for the lack of town halls.
Rude is never cool.

The "AFP wingnuts shouting out and interrupting any and all who disagree with them"?

Sure. Those seniors and moms who showed up at last year's town halls were soooo intimidating. I didn't see much shouting or interrupting at the town halls I attended or saw on video. I did see a lot of voters who weren't happy with Frank's record to date.
