Coming out on the same day as the Argus/KELO Poll, this mailing was on my doorstep today, and marked the first negative campaigning piece directly from one of the campaigns in the Congressional race, as the Shantel Krebs for Congress continues pressing the attacks she started last week in the debates.
Featured in the piece seems to be a photographic creation that does not exist outside of photoshop:
Now there is a deeply dishonest postcard. Shantel must be desperate. Oh wait – the Argus/KELO poll says she’s losing by 18%.
Desperate and pathetic.
Who in DC is trying to hide his record? From the photo it’s just Dusty trying to shred a file. We deserve more than petroglyphic negative mailers.
it is a reference to the SuperPACs helping Dusty by going negative on Shantel
A week ago, I was guessing Shantel would be in the 30’s. Had no idea if it was the high or low thirties. Now, I’m not sure she will be in the 20’s and it is plausible she might get 3rd.
When this started Dusty had some very real advantages (name ID and high net favorables) and he ran a pretty flawless campaign. That is a combination where only a seismic event can change the outcome. Krebs should have recognized it and made sure one didn’t burn bridges.
This is not how she should have ended her political career. Sometimes you can just want something too bad. Its a shame.
She should have pulled out months ago and tried to keep her job as Secretary of State, I think that also is over after this series of negative attacks.
we just need a west-river version of this issued on orange or pink paper now for the other campaign to complete the circle.
An increased sale tax in 50 years. (Small print)
Ya the nerve, I c why this ad was printed. (Don’t correct my hunt and peck)
When Dusty meets with liberal Never Trump groups to ask for support in attacking his opponents, it’s good campaigning. When Shantel, responds, it’s negative campaigning? This blog is clearly apart of the never Trump group supporting Dusty.
This krebs campaign has turned into a car accident you can’t help but stare at. Stop digging for crying out loud!!!!
Shantel made mistake after mistake and the direction of the campaign has turned many off. Very superficial and that is too bad. She is too bright to go the route that she did in this failed campaign that will have negative consequences long after this primary.
Well since they are a SuperPAC it would be illegal for him to coordinate with that group. Have any proof to back up your claims?
This blog only criticizes those who don’t pay Pat Powers hush money.
Well it can be argued that Dusty, doing his job for the Governor, pushed and lobbied for the Governors agenda. Their were fee and tax increases. Also the Governor signed those bills into law. Don’t misunderstand me I am behind Double D and Double M. They have run this state under some thight circumstances.
Watching debate. Did you know Krebs was raised on a farm before she owned a high-end shoe store?
yes she says it all the time…or are you being sarcastic?
Sarcasm
Both of her stores were epic failures… she also never says that as a business owner-
Dusty absolutely crushed the debate tonight. Clearly the most prepared, the most comfortable, and the most professional. Outright debate winner – not even close.
Strange that Shantel “I’m all in with President Trump” doesn’t like his approach to the DACA issue which includes limited amnesty.
Glad I voted for Dusty. He’s running on his own merits, his own accomplishments, and as his own person.
This is the kind of ad that turns people off. She should be telling us why Republicans should vote for her, not why someone should not vote for the other guy. Perhaps people running for governor might make a note of this error.
I got another disgusting, dishonest and pathetic anti-Johnson mailer from Shantel today suggesting he’s not supporting Trump. I’m pretty sure Trump’s done some stuff Dusty would support. He’s also done some crap none of us should support. So what??
She will never, ever get another vote of mine. Not even for dog catcher. I firmly believe her political career is toast.
