Jack Connelly is getting super creepy in Tacoma

He is running for state senate 27th district. As the anti-choice pro charter schools, anti teacher's union Democrat against Jeanne Darneille who is endorsed by all the the real Democrats in town. Connelly seems intent on buying the election. He has sent multiple mailings whining about the fact he is being attacked by his opponent. His wife sent a letter where she called Tacoma's schools a "drop-out" factory and advocated charters. She whined about attacks on her husband's pro-life stance.

Then she called the house to leave the same message. And yesterday, their child called. Little "Honey Boo Boo" Connelly called and left a garbled message about people being mean to her daddy and saying she was going to "Vote for my Daddy!" What the hell????

Is anyone else getting harassed like this?

Washington's new method of choosing the top two candidates from the primary to run in the election has many in the state confused.
Connelly, clearly a republican from the positions he holds, is running as a democrat against a real democrat.
Enlisting his family members to try to convince voters that he is a democrat, when the democratic party in the state rejects him, is underhanded. While I knew Connelly's wife was campaigning, I hadn't heard the child was calling too.
Reminds me of Ryan dragging his kids into the soup kitchens to wash clean dishes. A manifestation of family values?

that he supported Rick Sanctorum in the rallies down there. This is how they intend to defeat progressive Democrats.

take control of Washington's State House''s. I think that right wingers are running as Democrats all over the country. It is just more obvious in states that run just one primary.
