This really burns me, so I apologize in advance for ranting here but I need to do it someplace.
In the mail today, I received not one, but two mailers from Grayson.
One was an ad touting McConnell's endorsement and stating "Unlike my opponent, I am committed to seeing him re-elected to that position [Republican leader] in the next Congress. If elected I will work with Sen. McConnell to help get our country back on a path to prosperity." No mention of the fact that it was some of McConnell's votes (e.g. TARP) that got us into this mess -- that McConnell has been ineffective so far in helping the economy.
But the second mailer frosts me even more, about Rand Paul "evading taxes" by treating his employees as independent contractors instead of regular employees. Of course, no mention was made here that employers do this all the time, especially for employees who are temporary workers, nor that Grayson himself did it in his 2007 campaign. I've been a "1099" worker several times.
It's bad enough that Grayson and his cronies lie to Dr. James Dobson, but when they lie to me in my mailbox, then I take it personally. This seals it. I will never vote for Grayson nor McConnell again unless they admit their sins and repent. If no one runs against McConnell in 2014, I will.
Rand needs to get Joe Wilson's endorsement and have him make a "you lie" commercial. Rand needs to have a mailer pointing out Grayson's lies, and ask the voters whether they want a senator that they cannot trust to tell the truth.
Both of these were sent by "Friends of Trey Grayson." I have yet to receive a third-party hit piece, but I expect a deluge any day now.
