Wisconsin Paper Endorses Feingold After Johnson Deer-In-Headlights Moment |
|
Edited on Wed Oct-20-10 01:58 PM by bigtree
from TPM: http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/10/wisconsin-paper-endorses-feingold-after-johnson-deer-in-headlight-moment.phpWednesday, October 20th, 2010 That didn't take long. The Wisconsin newspaper that had Republican Senate hopeful Ron Johnson at a loss for words over how to help the middle class has just endorsed his opponent, Sen. Russ Feingold (D-WI). What's more, the paper cites stumping Johnson as a key driver of their decision "Oshkosh businessman and political newcomer Ron Johnson, also has voiced his support for spending controls and fiscal responsibility in Washington," the endorsement reads. "His plan for righting the U.S. economy, however, comes across as one-note: establish a hard spending cap, reduce government interference and allow businesses to flourish."
"These are principles with which we agree; however, Johnson seemed unable to further articulate his plan for job creation -- especially for the middle class -- during a recent meeting with the Green Bay Press-Gazette editorial board. Basic principles of restraint are one thing; a detailed proposal to spur job creation and get our economy moving is another."read more: http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/10/wisconsin-paper-endorses-feingold-after-johnson-deer-in-headlight-moment.phpendorsement: http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?category=blogs0601&plckController=Blog&plckBlogPage=BlogViewPost&U=35699dd2-da66-41f6-909b-deddb4a85df5&plckPostId=Blog%3a35699dd2-da66-41f6-909b-deddb4a85df5Post%3a1676cf69-0666-4df9-94cf-79265445a6d8&plckScript=blogScript&plckElementId=blogDest

1. I hope this helps Mr. Feingold. |
|
I'm so tired of seeing Mr. Johnson's face on TV and online ads with nothing coherent to say. I just can't stress that enough.

4. When are the DC Media going to hold the DC Republicans |
|
accountable??? Never I assume.
Heck, The GOP here in DC go JOBS JOBS JOBS while pointing finger at Obama and Democrats. Never say what they will do to create more jobs.
Pearlestein at WAPO pointed out on CRose: The Republicans do not have plans for jobs. He explained Tax Cuts is not an answer. If Businesses had any idea they would be getting more customers, they would hire irregardless of tax cuts. Business is in the same place as regular Americans. Business is unsure of what has happened and how all this uncertainty about what will happen to our country. This uncertainty is not about tax cuts.
Most of the jobs lost in Ohio were lost before Obama came to office, but the Democrats instead of fighting back early on, have permitted themselves to be painted as the job losers. Some of the Biggest Free Traders in GOP are leading in OHIO.
I am waiting with baited breath to see all the jobs the GOP will create. Betcha some money the Media will turn off all discussion of Jobs once the GOP are in office. IF that happens. I am holding out hope the GOTV will stop them. OK, The Media will turn off discussion of Jobs. What is frustrating--Conservative Ecocomic Free Market Policy drove us into this situation.
