Long Continues To Separate Himself From Blunt

Billy Long, the Republican auctioneer trying to replace Roy Blunt in Congress, has signed the Citizens Against Government Waste's pledge to oppose "irresponsible, corrupt" earmark spending. 

Fellow CD7 candidate Sen. Jack Goodman signed the same pledge in October, and has described the earmarking practice celebrated by Blunt and Sen. Kit Bond as "awful." Candidates Darrell Moore and Jeff Wisdom have made similar promises.
