1) Hutcheson for writing it. And for apparently he and other campaign staff sending out similar emails to other groups. If this is the way they think a campaign should be run, and they aren't run out of town, we're doomed to lose for a long time.
2) I also have a problem with the Virginia Club for Growth publishing this. And I stand by my earlier comments with regard to single-issue interest groups.
The bottom line?
Both sides need to grow up. We need to work out our differences and learn to present a united front.
The left does this all the time. It's easier for them because they have no principles. It's harder for us to let go of the things we believe in. What we have to learn is that, while it may not be the result we want, we work for the best result of available options.
The Virginia GOP advance is next month. I can't go (and haven't in years). But I intend to make several contacts ahead of time (I suggest you do the same with any GOP leadership you know personally) and let them know that they need to be in the business of putting an end to this stupidity.
If they don't, they can stop calling me.
Is Hutcheson really such a whiny baby? He worked on the Allen campaign, no? I can't imagine George Allen putting up with this kind of adolescent temper tantrum.
The stupid party is back in full force, huh?
The Virginia Club for Growth-sounds like an impressive organization, but aside from the email list you conveniently ended up with from me after the Allen Campaign in 2000, who are your members?
