After Democrat Party Chair Ray Buckley sent a Tweet telling the New Hampshire press corps that evasive, tax-dodging Rep. Annie Kuster (NH-02) was not only in New Hampshire, but even in his office, it appears Kuster has finally been forced to open up to the media. WMUR Political Director Josh McElveen Tweeted out the following about three hours after Buckley blew the lid on Kuster’s whereabouts.

Kuster’s apology may seem disingenuous to some. She maintained days of silence in the face of serious questions from the press and public alike. Meanwhile, Democrat Party hatchetmen attempted to deflect attention away from Kuster’s tax problems by attacking Republicans who asked legitimate questions.
