What he is really saying is that we the voters would have to be stupid to support Hackett. After all why would we want to give up our Federal Grants on a lost cause like Chis Hackett.

By the way is Hack spending his own money or his wife's money?

Carney himself was a volunteer firefighter. The PAPFFA will endorse Carney because they figure he can relate to the needs of firefighters and hopefully bring some money into some areas where outdated equipment is not fit for use. Volunteer companies have to rely on contributions from the public and government grants - they receive no municipal funds or tax proceeds to protect the lives of people in their surrounding communities.
