Former Democratic Rep. Gabby Giffords' husband says Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) should not "hide behind" his wife's shooting to avoid town halls.
"If he doesn't want to do town halls, he should just say he doesn't want to face his constituents," Mark Kelly said Friday, according to CNN. "He shouldn't hide behind Gabby."

No sense in conceding the field without a fight.
