Rhode Island Gubernatorial Candidate Slams Obama

Frank Caprio, the Democratic nominee for Governor of Rhode Island, had some choice words for President Barack Obama during an interview on a Providence radio show this morning.

When asked about the President’s decision to not endorse Caprio, the gubernatorial hopeful fired back by saying, “He can take his endorsement and really shove it as far as I’m concerned.”
