I about fell over from shock as a ‘Shantel Krebs for Congress’ post appeared in my facebook feed this morning. And in checking, it appears that the campaign has ‘un-banned’ me.
If you recall my post from September:
The blocking seems to have coincided with the announcement of the results of the party’s Straw Poll, which I really didn’t say anything about. It’s not going to prevent me from mentioning the campaign, or talking about issues or concerns that I might notice. But what it does do is remove positive campaign items that might be worth highlighting for the readers from coming to my notice so I can share them with readers.
So, Shantel Krebs has joined Lora Hubbel to hide things from public view. Not exactly a campaign strategy I ever have employed in nearly 30 years of this stuff.
Now I have posts such as this appearing in my facebook feed again:
Someone let me know why it was important to prevent my seeing that in the first place?
4 months to go.
“But what it does do is remove positive campaign items that might be worth highlighting for the readers from coming to my notice so I can share them with readers.”
“Someone let me know why it was important to prevent my seeing that in the first place?”
Well, you seem to be in full campaign mode for Dusty Johnson, and nearly everything you publish about Shantel seems to be presented with maximized negative spin. Maybe someone in her campaign said, “The fewer ‘positive campaign items’ Pat Powers ‘highlights’ about us, the better.”
You’re notorious for blocking people from this blog on less sufficient grounds.
That’s your opinion, although it’s incorrect. I’ve only blocked maybe 2 people, and placed a couple others under moderation, requiring screening before I’ll let their posts through. And that’s specifically because they would not abide by the rules.
Otherwise, if you think I’m writing something in a negative tone, I can’t help it if you think a campaign’s actions portrays it in a negative light. The comment section is there if you want to cheer someone on.
grudznick wagers she will block you again in a fit of pique over something somebody else does that you comment on.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Meanwhile, Tapio takes the lead as the Shantel and the Dusty forces fight…. Resulting in a battle between Bjorkman and Tapio, or should we say a judge versus one who likes to judge….
Tapio and Shantel fight for the Far Right and Right where as Dusty and Shantel fight for the moderates and some of the Right base. It’ll all come down to who shows up to vote.
And the left of center Republicans will all end up voting for Bjorkman in the fall…
Bjorkman should not be counted out. Therefore Dusty is in the best position to win this fall.
Yep. Just like Mitt and Jeb and McCain. 2016 DID happen. As much as establishment politicos wish it hadn’t.
