Charlie Brown Update - Calitics knows Brown is no Moderate
By Sgt. York | 07/26/08 | 09:27 PM EDT | 0 Comments
Sorry Charlie!
Maybe we could liken the Brownies to a group of Sgt. Schultz's "Ve know nuting".
Maybe there is a reason why the Brownies are reticent to go on the record on any issue:
Calitics, a renowned Lefty Blog... basically the Daily Joke (Kos) of CA... had a few things to say about the Brown energy plan release:
(The context of the post is that it is a list of Democrat targeted house races for 2008. McClintock after getting hammered by 6.2 million of Ose's assassinations is apparently in for some more smearing before he gets to D.C.)
REPUBLICAN SEATS
I'm going to do four tiers in setting apart the top seats where we have challenges to Republican incumbents.
First Tier
1. CA-04. Last month: 1. Open seat. Dem. challenger: Charlie Brown. Repub. challenger: Tom McClintock. PVI #: R+11. % Dem turnout in Feb. primary: 44.7. DCCC targeted. Tom McClintock actually raised quite a bit of money in the second quarter, but it all got plowed into the divisive primary with Doug Ose. Plus, he was able to go above individual spending caps because of the "Millionaire's Amendment," which was recently ruled unconstitutional, putting constitutional literalist McClintock in a bind over what to do with that money. We've seen real awkwardness from McClintock over how to handle disgraced incumbent John Doolittle, with shows of support and rejections happening on alternate days. Meanwhile, Charlie Brown is humming along. He has a 6-1 cash on hand advantage, and he'll also be the recipient of some ad love from the DCCC. His courageous stand against the FISA bill, outreach to parts of the district harmed by wildfires, and the release of a good energy plan which stresses tax credits for alternative energy and government fleets going renewable (and opposing opening up new lands for offshore drilling, in line with the "Use It Or Lose It" plan from Speaker Pelosi). Brown was beloved at Netroots Nation and looks good in polling. This is obviously our biggest-priority pickup.
Brown: raised $355K, $675K CoH
McClintock: raised $1.27m, $117 CoH
Hmmm - Brown = Pelosi. I say COME GET SOME.
This is where Jeff Flint's coverage of Brown's energy plan was lacking... I knew I smelled a rat and found it courtesy of Calitics.

Don't look now, but Lungren is finding himself in the cross-hairs as well!
