I suspect that Benacquisto might have been better, and more electable in the general election. But Clawson had more money.
Well, let’s hope he works out.
Benacquisto’S husband had links to the dems:
Clawson didn’t even have to buy the election,when most locals heard Lizbeth speak,it was an automatic turn off.Lets just say she talks,she sounds like a “S.D.B.”.
The seat is safe so we don’t have to worry about the general election but I was for Benacquisto as well.
Clawson is one of those guys who says “Politicians suck vote for me, I’m not one, well not until now! I’m TEA PARTY, because I say so! My opponent is a RINO, because she dares to oppose me!”. He has nothing to back up his talk.
Benacquisto was endorsed by Palin, Clawson was endorsed by Connie Mack IV, the RINO who used to hold this seat.
He may be fine though, who knows.
Winning the special gives Clawson a huge leg up in the primary for the full term.
