This presumes he'll admit his mistakes -- He hasn't shown evidence of being man enough to do that (yet).

Wrong on all accounts. Bill Simon always took credit for screw-ups that other people made. He consistently said that the buck stops with him. That's why very few people have heard much at all about Rob Lapsley and Ed Rollins who ran the campaign during the so-called "bumbling" times.

Ed Rollins sure sucks so much, Dan.

49 out of 50 states over Mondale.

That was going to be a landslide anyway, but the magnitude of it was great even for then.

Incidentally, that was also the last general election that a statewide candidate Sal Russo was working for won.

Dan,

Remember the "Log Cabin questionnaire" fiasco last August, and how Sal Russo ended up taking the blame for that?

I would genuinely appreciate it, if you could refrain from posting on the board, if you cannot restrain yourself from making arguments based on demonstrably factually inaccurate statements like the above.

This Recall would not have been necessary, if B.S. actually took that blame, and dropped out of the race when many in the state party asked him to (in favor of another Republican), following the "photogate" fiasco.
