Comments on: The McEwen Campaign Continues Its Relentless and Serious Pursuit of “The Issues” http://www.bizzyblog.com/2006/04/11/the-mcewen-campaign-continues-its-relentless-and-serious-pursuit-of-the-issues/ The Business End of the Blogosphere Fri, 09 Jan 2009 09:03:15 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5 By: TBlumer http://www.bizzyblog.com/2006/04/11/the-mcewen-campaign-continues-its-relentless-and-serious-pursuit-of-the-issues/#comment-6810 TBlumer Tue, 11 Apr 2006 21:16:16 +0000 http://www.bizzyblog.com/?p=1844#comment-6810 #1, I know who Dratch is. My point is that anyone attempting a serious discussion of "the issues" would not still be riding that tired-attempt-at-comedy horse. Another thing -- the McEwenites have said that they don't want to beat up on Schmidt for her November House floor speech to concentrate on "the issues." Yet by attempting to get Dratch here and publicizing or wondering about her appearance, that's exactly what they're doing. The last thing these people care about is "the issues." McEwen and Schmidt are generally so close that it really doesn't matter. McEwen's only shot at winning is to drag Schmidt through the mud and hope that others don't throw enough at them. #1, I know who Dratch is.

Another thing — the McEwenites have said that they don’t want to beat up on Schmidt for her November House floor speech to concentrate on “the issues.” Yet by attempting to get Dratch here and publicizing or wondering about her appearance, that’s exactly what they’re doing.

The last thing these people care about is “the issues.” McEwen and Schmidt are generally so close that it really doesn’t matter. McEwen’s only shot at winning is to drag Schmidt through the mud and hope that others don’t throw enough at them.

I can't remember where - perhaps a google news search will find it.
