Kratovil for Congress shill "Bud the Blogger" doesn't like Andy Harris' pollster. Bud claims he's gay. I say, "So What?".
Frankie's boy says that pollster Arthur Finkelstein "married" his long-time partner. Again, "So What?".
Bud claims that this somehow proves that Maryland Sen. Andy Harris is not a conservative. How? When has Harris ever voted to support "gay rights"? He's a lot farther to the right on that issue than I am; and no one has ever called me a liberal.
The bottom line -
Kratovil and his sycophantic supporters are so worried that they can't even come close to beating Harris that surrogates like Bud will stoop to anything. Follow their logic ...
Harris hires a pollster. He's gay. The pollster went to Taxachusetts and "married" his boyfriend. The campaign paid the pollster. Harris must be for gay marriage.
What did Harris really do? He hired a pollster who happens to be gay.
His concern? That the pollster gives him accurate numbers and knows the kinds of questions to ask in guiding campaign strategy - NOT Harris' stance on issues.
Put it in terms of a situation we can all relate to -
You go to the doctor and he says that you need to have surgery. He recommends a surgeon. You check him out and everything that you find shows that this surgeon is highly skilled and well regarded by the community and his peers.
WAIT! Someone you talked to said that he's GAY! You'll go and get a surgeon who's not as highly skilled, not as well regarded. Why? Becuase you might wake up from the surgery and have the hots for my brother-in-law? Spare me.
Disclaimer - Do I honestly think that Frank Kratovil endorses the bigoted and asinine views of Bud? I hope not; any more than I believe that Andy Harris endorses all of the views which I espouse, or Joe Albero, or Michael Swartz ....

GREAT Post GA! Quite frankly, that guy Bud, (owner of the No BS Zone) is a flaming Idiot anyway.
Well, there you go. Flaming idiot. Maybe with all conservative bigots who back Harris, he figured he'd get votes for Kratovil that way.
Or maybe he's a Harris supporter who was using reverse tactics to get support for Harris, since many who support him ARE anti-gay.
Don't smear Kratovil because of some seeming supporter. People try to smear our local politicians who so much as talk to Joe (or G.A., either). Take Duvall, for example.
I want to see BOTH sides stay away from this crap. It is not becoming to EITHER candidate.
Democrat's for Andy Harris
Bud is a certified IDIOT. Kratovil needs to distance himself from that looney toon.
Mr. Harrison:
It's because Harris embraces your core views that I'm voting for Kratovil!
So Harris leads in polls & the Kratovil Kindergartners go a little racklessly ballistic?
Poor BSer Bud, someone aught to send him a hankie!
honestaby
I am amazed at the usually anti-gay folk and their sudden change of rhetoric. Andy Harris must have some real power over you people.
What's the matter Bud, can't handle my calling you an asshole on your Blog?
What does the fact that he's gay have to do with anything? In an earlier post, I linked to his Wikipedia entry, and pointed out the fact that the guy is a hardcore right-wing operative, but it didn't even cross my mind to mention the fact that the man is gay. Sure, it seems that by being gay and ultra-conservative that he's working against his own core beliefs and best interests, but it's irrelevant. I say leave his sexuality out of it.
To Bud -
Point to one instance of something that I've written which is anti-gay? How about anti-black? Anti-Hispanic?
No, unfortunately people like you can't put together a decent argument without such tactics. You would probably claim that criticizing a black politician for their comments or policy positions is somehow racist or criticizing illegal immigration is anti-Hispanic.
Of course that would only prove how foolish you really are.
