Ooops! Van Hollen goes down the rabbit hole

J.B. Van Hollen, the Republican Attorney General candidate, officially went down the rabbit hole on Friday. Van Hollen actually put out a press release on Friday criticizing Kathleen Falk, the Democrat in the race, of not taking enough environmental protection cases when she was working at the Department of Justice after months of saying she took too many.

Too few, too many. Which is it Mr. Van Hollen?

This ridiculous attack in which Van Hollen appears to be advocating that Falk should have given people false hope by starting cases she knew she couldn't finish, really illustrates that Van Hollen has permanently moved into desperation mode.

He's realized that his repeated bleating that Falk doesn't have experience has made the press look into his experience and they've found some unsettling things.

For example, in today's Wisconsin State Journal, an article on the Attorney General's race catches Van Hollen in one of his grand exaggerations. He has been running around telling everyone how great he did prosecuting the Stoughton mall rapist. Except that he didn't handle the case. His assistant did.

And I'm sure that that little white lie is the tip of the iceberg with Van Hollen.
