Do as I say, not as I do

The press release from Republican Attorney General candidate Paul Bucher yesterday about the other Republican Attorney General candidate, J.B. Van Hollen, took hypocrisy to a whole new level. Van Hollen said yesterday that there are terrorists training in Wisconsin but refused to give more details. That prompted Bucher to put this line in a press release:

Scaring the people of Wisconsin in an attempt to gain political points is irresponsible and wrong.

Really? You mean like putting pictures of scary looking criminals on the internet and claiming one of your opponents would set them free? You may remember that not too long ago, Bucher put up a Willie Horton like website trying to scare people into voting for him. Or at least vote against the Democratic opponent he is scared to run against.

Bucher should not be surprised by Van Hollen's stunt since Bucher himself set this tone of scaring the voters to gain votes. My guess is he is not so much outraged as he is angry that he didn't come up with this idea himself.

Can't wait to see the stunts these two are going to pull in August and September.
