CO politics: Polis vs. Fitz-Gerald warms up

re "Fitz-Gerald challenges some donations to Polis" (Denver Post, 11/27/07)

Joan Fitz-Gerald’s complaints against Jared Polis’ campaign are both silly and typical. Swift Boat Veterans for Truth have not been particularly pro-Iraq-war. They were simply against John Kerry lying about his record for political gain. Basically, Fitz-Gerald is arguing that lying is fine as long as the liar is against the Iraq War.

Furthermore, doesn’t Fitz-Gerald have anything better to do than to talk about legal donations to her competitor’s campaign? Does she actually have a positive position on an issue, particularly a position that doesn’t involve finding a way to redistribute taxpayer money to unions?

I doubt she does as I have not seen her to be anything other than a cold, manipulative political operator, owned by unions, and notoriously difficult to like and work with. If she wants to gain support, she’s going to have to make news headlines other than complaining that people she disagrees with contribute to a candidate who wants to beat her.
