Veterans of Foreign Wars: Gene Taylor "can't ride that wagon anymore"

The Hattiesburg American has news on Democrat Gene Taylor's run against combat veteran Steven Palazzo. Basically, they are looking to rescind Taylor's endorsement and Taylor "can't ride that wagon anymore."

National Veterans of Foreign Wars officials want the organization's political action committee to rescind its congressional endorsements in the November elections, including one for Congressman Gene Taylor.

Bill Perkins, senior vice commander for VFW Post 3063 in Hattiesburg, said he understood that the national office had received thousands of calls and e-mails on the endorsements. The VFW has 2.1 million members.

Taylor's campaign has aired commercials about the VFW-PAC endorsement and included it on his campaign website, www.congressmangenetaylor.com.

Perkins said the VFW's demand that the PAC rescind its endorsements means that Taylor "can't ride that wagon anymore."
