SD33 Watch: Robocall War!

Posted by: Jubal | 05/02/2008 1:53 PM

The SD33 Republican primary battle between Mimi Walters and Harry Sidhu continues to escalate. For the last week, the two campaigns have traded hit pieces like galleons trading broadsides.

The two hit pieces launched by the Walters campaign earlier this week have triggered a robocall war.

A few minutes ago I received one from Walters -- featuring the voice of CRA President (Red County/LA editor) Mike Spence, ins response to yesterday's robocall from the Sidhu campaign:

Hello, this is Mike Spence, president of the California Republican Assembly. I'm calling to warn you that you may receive a phone call from a police labor union that attacks conservative rep ass Mimi Walters.

Please don't be fooled. Mimi Walters is endorsed by the California Republican Assembly because of her tough stand on illegal immigration.

Her opponent, Harry Sidhu, is weak on illegal immigration and is backed by liberal labor unions like the one calling you.

Don''t be fooled by labor union phone calls. Mimi Walters is the  conservative republican
who tells the truth.

This is California Republican Assembly President Mike Spence. Thanks for listening.

Harry Sidhu is one of us also! So good luck making your decision on Election Day.

And now James Lacy has published a piece on Flash Report that implies that Walters may have made a mistake in giving up her seat to Harkey in a Faustian bargain.

See here, http://www.flashreport.org/blog.php?postID=2008043022331980

Lacy has an axe to grind said:

That post by Lacy was so bad, no one bothered commenting. Everyone knows arguing with him would be a waste of time because he's wrapped up in his hate for Harkey and her electoral defeat of him in Dana Point.

It's funny that while Lacy bashes Harkey for not being a conservative, Lacy, himself, has drifted quite a ways away from the altar as well.
