Jeff Beatty on Energy & Oil

Republican Senate challenger

Opposed gas tax hikes; roll-back gasoline prices

His message on the economy, he says, ought to resonate among such working, middle-class voters. He wants to cut taxes, roll-back gasoline prices and trim government spending.

He said that, in contrast, his opponent is a globe-trotter who has proposed gas tax hikes.

"He doesn't get it," said Mr. Beatty, who is retired from a career in the US Army, CIA and FBI and running a small security business. "He doesn't have any contact with the lives most of us lead. I'm a proud member of the middle class."
