Interesting
story from the Seattle PI. The Seattle PI is the more liberal of the two
major newspapers in the Seattle area, the other being the Seattle Times which
could be considered more middle of the road. Worth noting is that the Seattle
PI ceased publishing an actual newspaper, with only an online version, a few
years ago while the Times continues with both print and lonline versions.
In
the story linked above, it seems that a Super-PAC is trying to smear one of the
democrats running for Congress. In an interesting twist, the Super-PAC supports
the rival democrat candidate.
The
most interesting aspect of the story (IMO) is the dig at Mitt Romney, who has
no dog in this fight what-so-ever. As a liberal rag, the PI just could resist
putting in this little bit.
The slick mailings have made largely
untrue claims about DelBene’s business record. She is a former vice president
at Microsoft who resigned as state revenue director to make her second bid for
Congress. The latest tries to make DelBene look like Mitt Romney.
(Emphasis mine, says PACNW Righty)
Very
curious that the PI doesn’t even bother to say mention that the charges leveled
against Romney by the Obama administration regarding Romney, Bain Capital, and
the Salt Lake City Olympics have proven to be false.
Maybe
they were trying to say DelBene looks and acts presidential? But then again,
maybe not?
