CMR doesn’t care
It is almost amusing to watch the GOP dirt machine frantically searching for ways to attack Lisa Brown. I wonder how much effort it took to dig up her doctoral thesis and find something they could twist to their advantage. You would think that if Lisa wins we will all be sent to a collective farm for retraining (after our property is confiscated of course). But there is an alternative and her philosophy can be inferred from her demonstrated positions over the past 14 years:
Widening income disparity: don’t care.
Skyrocketing prescription drug costs: don’t care.
Increasing rates of poverty and homelessness: don’t care.
Reduced ability to afford medical insurance: don’t care.
More frequent and deadly mass shootings: don’t care.
Refugees fleeing war and persecution: don’t care.
Vilification of anyone not agreeing with you: don’t care.
So if Liberal Lisa scares you, you can always vote for Callous Cathy.
