Patrick To Stump For Obama In NH, PA

BOSTON (AP) ― Gov. Deval Patrick's trips to New Hampshire and Pennsylvania to stump for Barack Obama this holiday weekend are earning him some grief at home.

Republican state Sen. Richard Tisei says Patrick is needed more now in Massachusetts, which is dealing with a fiscal crisis after revenues came in more than $220 million under projections for the first quarter.

Massachusetts GOP spokesman Barney Keller says Patrick is putting partisan politics above the state.

After leading a busload of Obama supporters to New Hampshire to knock on doors in Portsmouth on Saturday, Patrick will campaign for Obama in the swing state of Pennsylvania later this weekend.
