paul R nelson for congress



So I gotta ask, why include the middle initial "R" in the campaign banner? Is there another Paul Nelson on the ballot? Is it a branding strategy, like Toys 'R Us?

I couldn't say for sure, but in a congressional district where dairy cows outnumber voters 3 to 1, this level of formality may not be needed.

It's formality... many people hear Paul Nelson and then hear Paul R. Nelson and the latter sounds more austere.

Just look at recent polling in NY...

Hillary Clinton v. John McCain = McCain win.

Hillary Rodham Clinton v. John McCain = Clinton win.

People are weird.
