bedsitter23When you live in a battleground state, you get mail all the time.
I suppose I should keep it all, and open a small museum, but I don't.
Still, occasionally, one will find a surprising piece in with the usual junk.
This has all the markings of the usual smear letter.
-Paid for by a PAC
-Addressed to a Register Democrat
-Ornamented with a great 'look inside' caption
-targeted at the controversial side of the Party's ticket
So..
What do we really know about Paul Ryan?
How about....
He's SUPERAWESOME!
The mailer features a picture of Ryan with his mom (what a good boy) and plenty of quotes from Democrats who like Paul Ryan.
These Democrats are Joe Lieberman (of course), Sen Ron Wyden (who did partner with Ryan on his Helathcare plan), former Clinton Chief of Staff Erskine Bowles who puts a good word in about Ryan's arithmetic skills, and Dan Boren, a congressman from Oklahoma that goes hunting with Ryan.
Coming to mind me is 'how many times do you ignore the front man for the supporting player'. Still, there's little doubt that Ryan is Flea and Romney is Anthony Kiedis. Even the GOp are making this about Ryan.
I suppose that this should be in line with Romney, a man who bought and sold companies a living. Like a company that acquires a company because they need a new application or a new line of business to compete, so has Romney does this in politics. Want to show that you are going to radically change Medicare? Buy the company that has the patent on it, and acquire it and make it your own.
Then again, I could be completely wrong. This flier makes no mention of Mitt; only focusing on the humble Wisconsin upbringing of Paul Ryan. Maybe this is the first ad of the 2016 election season.
