Daley's letter writing campaign.

At the bottom of this post you will find a copy of the distribution list from Tim Daley to his supporters asking them to write letters on behalf of him to the local papers.

This is a common practice and Democrats excel at organized letter writing campaigns geared to appear spontaneous. This is something the right should do a better job of.

What I want you to see is the distribution list. Notice Kurt Vlach? Kurt resigned, that much we know, but he is still in the fray. Why would the local party continue to embrace him? As I reported earlier pending upon who you talk to Daley is introducing Vlach as either Campaign adviser or manager.

Well, once again he is fracturing the party. I am hearing of people pulling their support from Daley's campaign attempt to unseat Robin Vos because of Vlach's involvement.

Why is Tim Daley bringing in the unethical recently disgraced Vlach? Daley actually has a page on his website touting ethics reform. How can Tim Daley give a damn about ethics if he is embracing Kurt Vlach? A direct quote from his ethics section, "Enough is enough. Stop the disgrace. I have a reputation of being an honest person and lawyer."

I'm going to resist the urge to tell a lawyer joke but just say if you really cared about ethics Mr. Daley, why would you bring in the most unethical leader in Racine Democratic Party politics has ever known?

Subject: Letters to the Editor

Dear supporters;

I would like to have a coordinated letter writing campaign to all three newspapers, the Racine Journal Times, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel and the Westine Report. The general election is four months away.
If you would be willing to write letters supporting my candidacy in the coming months please let me know. Due to the papers' policies, you would only have to write a letter every 30 days at the most.
Tim
