InsideNOVA weighs in on
Rich Anderson's attack mailer against
Del. Paul Nichols (D-51).
We can see where the Anderson campaign would think this 2006 arrest would be a powerful weapon against Nichols, but when it left off the truth and included only the sensation, it did a disservice to the constituents of the 51st District.
Furthermore, and perhaps more disturbing, is the fact that the Anderson Campaign did not black out Nichols’ Social Security number, which is displayed on the arrest record.
[...]
In this day of identity theft, that action reaches a new low. In fact, Nichols was forced to cancel credit cards because of the mailers.
These mailers are just another example of the depths to which politics has fallen, and they cross the line from mean-spirited into harmful.
Rich Anderson owes Paul Nichols an apology.
One commenter even writes, "Nichols owes Anderson a lawsuit…Anderson is never going to apologize nor admit any wrongdoing." How about this: voters overwhelmingly reelect
Del. Paul Nichols on November 3 and show
Rich Anderson where his kind of campaign tactics lead?
