Wake Up Candidates

A good read about where the NRCC will put their money to what candidates in the Wisconsin 2010 election. I'll hold off comment on the Young Guns part till another day. I will say "Bully" to Lakeshore Laments on the last two paragraphs.
"Time will tell; we're just at the part of the game where pieces are being put on the chess board. No one's made any opening moves; though some press releases trashing Kagen's votes on multiple fronts would be nice to see.

The lack of them is making me wonder how much of an amateur hour are we going to see next year." NRCC to Candidates: Prove Yourselves Worthy!

I thought it was just me concerning amateur hour on what the 8th district candidates are doing out there. Will someone step up to the plate and go after Kagen instead of going after each other. Start pounding Kagen's votes, Kagens comments, Kagen on his health care vote, Kagen on 10.2% unemployment, jobs, jobs, jobs, Kagen on shortages on flu shots, how much more do you candidates need?

I am starting to see five to six separate factions around the 8th district. Can someone please tell the candidates, their followers and staff that they are running against Steve Kagen , not themselves. If they don't understand that soon they will separate themselves from the race before it even starts.

Candidates, you need to focus on this guy!




Thanks Kevin. Maybe Lakeshore Laments should come back to Wisconsin to run for office. He seems to know something about how to run a campaign. Bully. Kevin, why not run against Russ!

Why is there a need for press releases? The same thing can be done without going through the traditional media outlets with a PR. Not sure on the others but Ribble and Savard are both utilizing Facebook and their campaign websites to "trash" Kagen on issues, although it may not be as frequent as it should be.

I'll be interested in your thoughts on the "Young Guns" program and NRCC money.

Paul,
You are looking in the wrong "old media" places as Brad says. I just posted this morning and have many posts on Kagen and what he is doing wrong for the 8th. The old media is not going to print our press releases anyway.
