In the election against Lou Barletta many people were touting the money Kanjo brought back to the district. You heard about it on the morning drive with Kevin and Nancy. You heard people call into Steve Corbett and praise Kanjo for his efforts.
Take an honest look at the earmarks Kanjo brought back to the area. His solo earmarks amount to a total of 5 for a paltry $2,955,000. Contrast that with John Murtha who had 67 solo earmarks for a total of $159,940,200. Arlen Specter had 131 solo earmarks for a total of $31,167,900. Chris Carney quadrupled Kanjo with 18 solo earmarks for a total of $8,818,600.
It's the perception folks, not the reality that evidently counted.
