It seems Team Ashooh has finally figured out that there are about three candidates too many in the GOP side of the CD1 race, and has decided to try to up attention its way by sending out a SHOCKING, and SCANDALOUS, and meritless, release on a daily basis about Carol, with the volume set at 11.
I find this odd.
Because I'm still waiting for Rich Ashooh to give me or anyone a compelling reason to vote for him.
The entire United States of America is fuming at the British CEO of an international corporation which isn't doing nearly enough to stem the ruin they have unleashed on a huge section of the country.
And here we have a war lobbyist for a Biritish based international corporation, perhaps the world's largest defense contractor, asking for a seat at the table in congress.
This is the very definition of revolving door politics. Just starting from the wrong end first.
DC has many deficiencies, but probably the last thing it needs is one more direct link between the purse strings of the treasury and the military industrial complex. I'm pretty sure there are enough folks there already on top of that.
Of course, right now the seat Ashooh wants is in the hands of someone who, mirabile dictu, has actually put the needs of those who serve and have served in the military first and foremost in her legislative efforts, instead of the usual boilerplate about "supportihg the troops" that we get day in and out from pols. How rare is that?
Someday we are going to look back and marvel how we actually had someone in office representing "the rest of us." Let's do our part to make sure that moment arrives when Carol Shea-Porter makes the choice to retire.
