Kathy Salvi Issues Press Release on David McSweeney’s First Negative Attack
What follows is 8th congressional candidate Kathy Salvi’s reaction to David McSweeney’s first attack on her candidacy:
David McSweeney has unveiled his first negative attack on Kathy Salvi. He printed up mail pieces and produced attack radio ads last week that the Daily Herald reports accuse Kathy Salvi of siding with Democrats.
"This is McSweeney's history." Says Jason Heffley, campaign manager for Kathy Salvi. "He viciously attacked Republican Phil Crane even when Phil Crane was in the hospital. Now he is attacking Kathy Salvi."
David's excuse? After David went onto a talk show with Kathy's husband, David objected to the talk show debate.
"David McSweeney loves the politics of character assassination. He did it to Congressman Phil Crane. Now McSweeney is attacking Kathy Salvi for a debate between her husband and McSweeney. Meanwhile, Kathy is running for Congress and talking about the issues of the war on terror, reducing taxes and spending, and fighting traffic gridlock. If David McSweeney wants to debate Al Salvi, he should become a talk radio host too."
