In his best Insert politically correct impression, Josh Penry addresses the GOP masses via email:
In our own internal polling, for example, Jane Norton claims a lead when a broader sample of voters is polled. More precisely, when asking a wider sample of primary voters (those who voted in a primary in 2006 OR 2008), Jane is winning.
Penry goes on to play the role of pot calling the kettle charlie Black:
Buck’s supporters have been playing hardball on good days and downright dirty on others. Most recently a Ken Buck supporter filed a frivolous lawsuit to keep Jane off the ballot altogether. The lawsuit has no merit and no chance in keeping Jane off the ballot, but it’s emblematic of the brass-tack tactics the Buck campaign has employed.
Norton’s campaign seem to assume that the only information being consumed by Republicans is propaganda disguised as emails. Or perhaps Jane Norton, who is known to become forgetful (Cinamon, Josh, anything else?) forgot about her camp firing the first shot in the use of lawyers.
This week she (Norton) has embraced a complaint filed with the Federal Elections Commission by a former Owens administration official that alleges Buck colluded with former employer Jerry Morgensen, CEO of Hensel Phelps, to skirt campaign finance rules.
The campaign finance complaint detailing the theory was filed by Charles Grice, like Norton, a former official in the Owens administration. Owens and Grice asupport Norton in her race against Buck.

I certainly understand the necessity of a campaign to administer immediate life saving techniques. It is expected. What I do find odd is my receiving Norton’s propaganda.
I have been a very vocal supporter of Ken Buck and have never hid my identity. You would think Penry who has boasted, Norton will not unilaterally disarm, would remove me from his BFF email list. He boldly challenged Buck’s campaign via email and proudly sent a copy of the challenge to the Denver Post. Since that boast Norton’s numbers have tanked. Not only was she overtaken by Buck but her numbers continue to shrink against Bennet and Romanoff.
Needless to say I will be anxiously awaiting the next email from Baghdad Bob.

Is that hardball or downright dirty?
comparing someone to Saddam Hussein’s Minister of Information is just good, clean fun.
Baghdad Bob is frequently used. This is one of my favorites:

Well-done satire vs. not so much
with earnest.
I’m glad you dug through the problems with the email though. I had planned to but gave up.
The problem with Camp Norton, home of the inevitable, annointed one, is she can’t let on that she is getting her ass kicked, because then her “loyal” followers will jump the sinking ship. So what does she do. She sends Mr. credibility, Josh Penry out quoting a non-existant poll. The problem for Camp Norton, this is the second poll showing she is losing badly in the last 10 days.
To keep her dedicated followers believing, Norton has put up the results of a poll on her facebook page showing she does better vs the dems than Buck. It is s republican vs. democrat poll, not a republican vs. republican poll. Here is the link to the page: http://www.facebook.com/photo….
If any of them are bright enough to go to the original from which it is taken, here is what you see:

Note the date of the killer poll? 4-23-2010.
Ouch.
As I recall, “getting down to brass tacks” is the term and it’s a good thing, meaning getting back to fundamentals.
is probably what Josh meant to say. That implies dirty politics.
why I voted for Voyageur for FP Editor!
C’est bon!
