Jenerette Campaign: It’s Amazing Old Man Brown Can Feed Himself (Editorial - SC House Dist. 1)

Jenerette Campaign: It’s Amazing Old Man Brown Can Feed Himself

We got a look this morning at the official press announcement on Katherine Jenerette’s run for Congressman Henry Brown’s District 1 seat and noticed a bit of a theme for this challenge to her fellow Republican:

“… announced her bid for the Republican nomination for the 1st District US Congressional Seat, currently held by 72-year old Rep. Henry Brown of Hanahan.”

“… we needed ‘new-blood’ and a new aggressive conservative congressman to represent the 1st District in Congress.”

“…our district here in South Carolina has changed tremendously over the years.”

Times have changed,” Jenerette continued. “And our times call for a Congressman to represent our district who has the stamina to push for the people

of South Carolina

“…what young women and men of my generation feel…”

We get the picture. Really.

That headline is hilarious. If that slogan was on a sign, it’d be in my front yard right now.

This is her first of many blunders. Henry Brown is the same age as the candidate she supports for president, John McCain.

The district 1 race is going to be very interesting. If the GOP candidates beat each other up we could drop this one to the dems.

How old is this Jenerette. She makes it sound like she is a spring chicken running against an old geezer?

She posted this thread a few weeks ago:

KATHERINE JENERETTE GRADUATES from US ARMY AIRBORNE SCHOOL

I fully support her.

Brown is mostly conservative and has about a 93 lifetime ACU rating, although that dipped to 84 in 2006. Ratings for 2007 haven’t been published as far as I can tell. I hope Katherine runs a positive campaign and wins fair and square.

Swampy, from what I reviewed the comment about “feeding” was created by the newspaper editorial staff. Actually, Jenerette’s press announcement is not out of line. I think the paper is having some literary fun at the expense of the two candidates. Am I wrong on that?

You are correct, it's an editorial.

I'll post a link to the complete announcement and to the previous thread.

Pretty catty editorial. If ever there was such a thing as tush envy, this is it.

Send him home to molest the grandchildren. That would be my response if she wishes to play that way. Lets talk issues!
