Just Wait for This Mud to Fly

An interesting nonpartisan study from Notre Dame, looking at the 2002 race for the 2nd Congressional District, makes reference (PDF warning) notes some interesting mud about Jill Long Thompson that will doubtless soon be flying in the Democratic gubernatorial primary (and if not in it, then certainly later):

Alexa sent out a series of negative mailings attacking Long Thompson for allegedly voting against Medicare and bouncing twenty-one checks in the House bank scandal while in Congress.

And given that Bill Alexa was a Democratic primary challenger to Jill Long Thompson, I suspect that it won’t be above Jim Schellinger (or his surrogates) to launch similar attacks.
