Sierra Club against Earley
This morning 4 people were handing out a 1 page, double sided, document entitled "Mark Earley: Bad for Virginia's Environment". This document was authorized by the Sierra Club's Virginia PAC. Since I helped put EPA together 30 years ago, now do environmental defense work, and am a member of the Virginia Air, Water and Waste Boards, I have some idea as to how bad and misleading this document is regarding Mark Earley.As John Fund noted in yesterday's Wall Street Journal, the Democrats have reverted to their Clinton extremism charges as a way to run a campaign. < SNIP >

And this at the WP:
Parties Aim to Get Out The Vote
"Virginia Republicans vowed yesterday to unleash 10,000 Election Day volunteers in Northern Virginia, hoping to propel underdog candidate Mark L. Earley to the governor's mansion with an unprecedented get-out-the-vote effort."
A nice young (disillusioned) lady at the Metro today handed me one of these, asking if I'd like campaign info. I saw Earley's name and took one. The title read as listed above, so I politely said "No" and handed it back to her, then rather loudly proclaimed "I have as much experience as Warner."
They weren't all that successful even getting folks to take the brochures.
