HOD-99

First Shannon web ad -

Tue Jul 28, 2009 at 12:25:56 PM EDT

uses video of 99th HOD wingnut candidate Catherine Crabill to go after Cooch:

Ryan Nobles of Channel 12 notes that Republicans are reluctant to go after Crabill because the Tea Partiers are among the few in the base who currently are motivated, but that Crabill was not someone they sought. They had no one else to run against Al Pollard. But she is on the Republican ticket, which makes her fair game in any statewide Republican race.

More nuttiness from Catherine Crabill

(NOTE - this is an ongoing news story. I had not posted the video earlier because the Crabill campaign had argued that the snip was out of context. It is not. I have examined the entire 30+ minutes of the video. And it is consistent with the kinds of other extreme remarks from Crabill, to which I refer in the piece. The video is now at the top of the front page at Daily Kos, and is getting wide national distribution. Because of the news-worthiness, I am putting it up to the top of the front page. - promoted by teacherken)

the following video is extracted from taping done by a Democratic tracker. There is no editing in the portion offered. The content of the message is in conformity with some of Crabill's other statements, including on her website. Any Republican who is not willing to denounce this kind of statement is admitting they do not believe in the democratic process.
