I will take your word on the sleaziness of Van Taylor's primary campaign, but Chet Edwards has a *very* liberal voting record, and if voters in the TX-17 (who are conservative enough that President Bush got 70% in 2004) were told the truth about Edwards instead of the BS he spouts about being a "conservative Democrat" he'd be out the door. So I, for one, hope that Taylor keeps hitting Edwards over the head with his own voting record.

In 2004, Arlene Wohlgemuth ran a very positive campaign against Edwards. She never attacked him or resorted to name calling. Most of her ads told the voters why she should be elected. The few ads that pointed out Edwards' voting record did not get personal.

I've met Chet Edwards and while I agree with him on very little, I respect him as a person. He is a good man albeit very misguided on most issues.

Taylor went negative on day one and I predict he will lose 60%-40% on election day. Arlene Wohlgemuth lost 51%-47% and she was considered a fairly week candidate. Taylor could have been a strong candidate but his actions have scuttled his chances.
