File under She Can Dish It Out, But She Can't Take It, Hormonal politics at work, or loads of endorsements are negative? Daylin, are you having fun watching all this?

Today, we have seen a press release that reduces us to fits of giggles, please, allow us to quote (the campaign is using SAC and Save Ardmore Coalition as "keywords" so how can we NOT find this stuff?):

Lance Rogers Launches Campaign With Negative Attack Ad Against Life-long Republican Lisa Paolino

For Immediate Release
RADNOR, Pa./EWORLDWIRE/April 3, 2008 --- Republican-turned-Independent, turned-Republican again, Lance Rogers began his campaign for Pennsylvania State Senate this week by launching a negative TV ad against his opponent, life-long Republican Lisa Paolino, a Radnor Commissioner.

Rogers' negative and misleading TV ad began airing two days after he personally assured Paolino at a candidate forum in Norristown that he wanted to conduct a "decent" campaign.

"Only a candidate that has nothing good to say about himself begins his campaign with a negative ad," said Paolino, the first woman ever elected to a full term on the Radnor Board of Commissioners.

"Lisa Paolino is running a strong, issues-based campaign for State Senate," said Mimi Auchincloss, Radnor Republican Committee Chair. "Too bad Mr. Rogers isn't following her example.

When can we expect her to so "positively" go negative on Daylin? Maybe she just doesn't like folks from our neck of the woods? Maybe she really wants to live in Lower Merion, and that is why her office is in BRYN MAWR not WAYNE?

Nevertheless, we feel we need to ask Ms. Paolino about a photo appearing in her literature of some familiar firefighter faces? Did she get a signed release to use the images of firefighters that was extracted from a larger photo taken at a 9/11 ceremony?

And as for Mimi Auchincloss, how about her negative political letter that killed more trees than a proposed zoning ordinance that has appeared in Main Line Life newspaper today? Isn't she being slightly hypocritical?

What is this all about really? Can it be said someone still has their knickers in a twist about not automatically being annointed the chosen one? Can it be said now more than ever people understand the frustrations of the Radnor Democratic Party?

Yeah baby, it's time for a change all right.

You know what is interesting? We, as the voting public only hear from Lance Rogers and Daylin Leach when they have something worthwhile to say, and is that not preferable to the ongoing sandbox wars?

To that end, we offer more worthwhile things to read as opposed to things that are only suitable for lining kitty litter boxes and bird cages - Tom Murray's awesome editorial:

"Lisa Paolino is running a strong, issues-based campaign for State Senate,"

Indeed. Lisa Paolino has LOTS of issues.

Here's hoping she doesn't get her hands on any bags of carrots.
