What I find to be most disturbing, is the focus on the removal of the inappropriate flyers, but not the fact that the candidate attempted to violate the rules, and use ill-begotten tactics with these flyers, in the first place.<br />I think it is admirable that Mr. Sweida stood up for his wife. My husband would have done the same for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4753203030852633986.post-79375941039893533502011-02-24T09:44:03.993-08:002011-02-24T09:44:03.993-08:00Re: Kittas comment.

She didn't make the news, she just reported it. And it wasn't just "someone's" husband; it was candidate Robin Haulman's husband.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4753203030852633986.post-4683901718478199082011-02-23T15:28:30.030-08:002011-02-23T15:28:30.030-08:00"Dirty politician?"

If her husband would do this, what would stop her from saying/doing anything to get elected. I can't believe Ellen Taylor said it was okay. She didn't even look at the flyer!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4753203030852633986.post-83412655997069192252011-02-23T15:16:57.558-08:002011-02-23T15:16:57.558-08:00Isn't every piece of political propaganda nega...Isn't every piece of political propaganda negative to someone somewhere? If Sweida really thought he was entitled to take flyers based upon "negative", albeit truthful information, why didn't he take the entire stack?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4753203030852633986.post-70392148316349671222011-02-23T11:54:40.526-08:002011-02-23T11:54:40.526-08:00You know picking up someone's flyers and tossi...You know picking up someone's flyers and tossing them is not nice but this article is also a tactic..... come on read between the lines who is being hurt and who is being helped by the public announcement that someone's husband grabbed some flyers and threw them away....
