But on the stimulus package, Mr. Murphy's taunts have turned Mr. Tedisco a little testy.
[...] He said he would not answer the ' hypothetical question' of how he would have voted on the measure, saying such a question was merely a "diversion" from what he called a more important issue: Mr. Murphy's spotty record of voting in elections.
"Mr. Tedisco said that if he answered the question, he would only encourage Mr. Murphy to pester him about other positions [...]
"A moment later, Mr. Tedisco accused his interviewer of being "co-opted" by Mr. Murphy. "You're carrying the water on this issue," he said, repeating a phrase he had used against a radio reporter the day before."
