Why does the Democrat party think they are not involved in attack ads? If you are on facebook, look at the negative comments they are making. I have no idea who is funding the Democrat or Republican ads, but someone is.<br /><br />I will have to be honest with you. I will certainly vote for Mr. Welch for County Commissioner. I have been very impressed how he has conducted himself with the Board of Education. I do not know Mr. Kennedy at all which tells me he needs to be campaigning and getting to know people. As many Democrats feel also, I can not support Ms. Roseman. Certain high profile members of her party say they will not support her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-11550451028497397462012-09-23T08:19:16.103-05:002012-09-23T08:19:16.103-05:00Remember, Opiib was just expressing his opinion. ...Remember, Opiib was just expressing his opinion.

But can you point to specific instances of scaremongering on the left that match what we saw in 2010 from the "Real Jobs" people (aka the Art Pope machine)? Because I got that awful flyer in the mail that had Cullie Tarleton wearing a sombrero and accused him of sending jobs "South of the Border", and also the one that played on homophobia. I still remember them very well because I had never seen such blatant & misleading political pandering before.Not Reallynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-18474624414270450242012-09-18T14:30:50.196-05:002012-09-18T14:30:50.196-05:00Jordan is a product of Civitas, Locke, and Pope.
