Lautenschlager Gets Irritated

Again, I do some work for JB Van Hollen, Republican candidate for Attorney General.

Even if I did not, however, I would get a kick out of this.

It looks like WKOW has gotten under her skin a bit.

The News Director writes in his blog:

Tony Galli got some information from Beloit yesterday that police there were waiting for information from the State Crime Lab before they could decide whether the unsolved murders of three women there were related. We even aired an interview with the assistant police chief who said just that...they were waiting for information from the State Crime Lab. And the murder was seven months old at that point. So, today we had an opportunity to ask the AG about the delay. And, She was less than happy with us. In fact, as you may have seen tonight at 6, after Tony thanked her for the interview, Ms. Lautenschlager said, "No...not thanks, Tony"” as she walked away. And she didn't say it in a nice way.

The original report.

A general rule in politics: When candidates and their teams are so thin skinned, it doesn't bode well for their campaign.

My personal take: How a person runs for office says a lot about how they will lead. Pettiness, snottiness and anger are not the qualities I want in my elected officials.
