WASHINGTON — Rep. Chris Carney was walking down a Capitol Hill street when suddenly — bam — an anonymous Republican with a video camera who'd been following him asked him a question that was intended to embarrass the Pennsylvania Democrat.
The interviewer asked first about a single provision in the massive economic stimulus bill, then asked if Carney was going to be "ready to vote tomorrow."
An irritated Carney answered: "Like I told you before, if I see the damn package, I'll have an answer."
A "macaca" moment meant to replayed on the Internet and possibly wound a vulnerable Democrat?
