Know the feeling. Steve Largent in 2002 gave us the RAT Governor we have in OK because of a louzy run campaign and I think Largent is great. His choice of campaign consultants was really bad and he ran the same stupid ad over and over again and nevered answered the attacks.
VA went for the Dem Governor in 2002 and they kept it Dem with a Republican legislature -- how can we lose a seat we didn't have to begin with?
I think some Republican campaign consultants should find a new line of work. There have been some badly run campaigns in Republican states in recent years. Almost like RINO consultants tank some conservatives with their ideas! If I were running for office, I would ONLY hire a conservative Republican consulting firm.
I think there are a lot of tax-and-spend republicans on the local level. Up to now, they've been able to hide from the Information Age. But that will change soon.
