Flat tire can’t stop Rep. Duffy

{mosads}”Things don’t always go as planned,” Duffy says in the video, speaking loudly over cars on the highway. 

“I got a couple guys from D.C. here to help me, dressed in their white shirts, don’t know what to do, how to change a tire, so we’re going old school,” Duffy continues, already getting down to business with the car jack.

In the short clip, Duffy promised it would only take him 15 minutes to change the tire and get back on the road.

Duffy’s office said Friday that it actually only took him about 10. The other 5 must have gone to making the video.

Duffy is competing to win the most Twitter followers, YouTube subscribers, and Facebook fans in the final four bracket for the new media challenge. 

He is also a member of the House Financial Services Committee; the committee’s Twitter account was profiled in this week’s Follow Friday Q&A.
