Nancy Pelosi Statement on Paul Hackett
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi's statement on the special election in Ohio's second congressional district
"Paul Hackett is a war hero who campaigned with the same dignity and honor that he served our country. Paul ran an excellent campaign and made what should have been an easy Republican win a tough contested race.
"The issues, political, and ethics environment are good for Democrats and Paul Hackett's campaign in a Republican district proves it.
"Republicans are on notice -- Americans are demanding a change. Americans will no longer tolerate the Republicans' continued abuses of power and catering to corporate special interests at the expense of the public interest.
"Democrats are committed to expanding opportunity, growing prosperity, and increasing security for every American."
