From the Daily Herald:
Crane’s campaign manager, Dennis O’Sullivan, calls it “petty” and a sign Bean’s campaign is “grasping at straws because they know they are going to lose.”
He objects to Bean’s constant characterization of Crane as a ineffective congressman, noting his record for snagging federal dollars to fund local projects.

In 1982 the Environmental Protection Agency identified the Wauconda Sand and Gravel landfill as a toxic waste dump that should be cleaned as soon as funds become available. But 22 years later, there has been no clean-up and the poison has spread. Residents blame the lack of action on long-time Congressman Phil Crane for not applying pressure on the E.P.A.
