From PA Water Cooler:
A Bucks County Republican, whose son was killed in Iraq, kicked off his political campaign Tuesday afternoon.
Tom Manion announced he would campaign against the only Iraq war veteran in Congress, Patrick Murphy.
“I am here today to announce my candidacy for Congress in Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District,” said Manion from the kitchen of his Doylestown home.
Manion’s son, Lt. Travis Manion, was killed fighting in the front lines in Iraq. He considers his son a main source of inspiration.
“Travis is certainly my inspiration for that,” said Manion.
