What makes you think that any other Conservative candidate would avoid the same trashing? ...... Virginia Ridgerunner
The question is not to "avoid" the trashing. The trashing will come and cannot be avoided. The point is to DEFEAT the trashing. Some candidates are strong enough to defeat it and others are defeated by it.
As a result of a solid record of almost 11 years as Governor of the second largest and most economically successful state in the Union, one conservative candidate has not only survived the media attempts at trashing, he has flourished after a month of trashing.
By contrast, some candidates have been utterly defeated by the trashing.
Truthfully the press has not even BEGUN to trash candidates. But it’s coming.
