Rep. Blunt: No 'daylight between the Speaker and me'
From CNN Ticker Producer Alex Mooney
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Missouri Rep. Roy Blunt, the No. 3 Republican member in the House, said he stands by House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Illinois, even as some media reports have indicated otherwise. "Those who are trying to create the appearance of disunity between myself and the Speaker should know: There is not, and has not been, any daylight between the Speaker and me," Blunt said in a statement. |
