The 34-year-old who is challenging Barney Frank for his seat in Congress, recently took the opportunity to take a few swipes at the long-serving gay politician.

Republican Sean Bielat wants to represent Massachusetts's 4th Congressional district, which is predominantly Democratic. Speaking to The Huffington Post, Bielat said that he could make inroads in the district by letting Barney Frank, who has represented the district since 1981, just be himself.

"He's abrasive. Every time he comes and speaks in the district it works for me. I want him speaking nonstop," Bielat told The Huffington Post at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C. "In the town hall meetings he craps all over his constituents. He's just rude."

Bielat is currently a major in the Marine reserves and has a master's degree in public policy from Harvard University.
