The Tony Amador for Congress campaign has actually put out a release that highlights Amador’s endorsement from the Sheriffs of Sacramento, Merced and Solano counties. While that’s fine and dandy even though none of those counties are part of the 11th Congressional District, it’s pretty amusing to see they added a scorecard on the release stating "Primary Scoreboard: Amador 3 Goehring 2." I guess it’s hard to be a good scorekeeper when one campaign is playing on the junior varsity level and being dominated in every aspect of the game by a clearly superior opponent.
Maybe it’s just me and I could be wrong here being that I’m biased and all in favor of my client Brad Goehring, but it seems to me you might not want to highlight the fact that your opponent has the support of the Sheriffs who represent the two largest counties in the district and are very popular and respected officials while your endorsements mean ZIP, ZERO and NADA in the 11th Congressional district.
Or maybe you would think of avoiding discussing endorsements when Brad Goehring has not only locked down the support of those two local Sheriffs but nearly every GOP elected official in San Joaquin County including Assemblyman Bill Berryhill and a large number of Supervisors, Councilmembers and Mayors. By adding high profile support in the East Bay from leaders like Rupf, Goehring is positioning himself as the candidate best able to rally both sides of the district and build the organization necessary to take out the horrid McNerney.
Yeah Tony…you’re up.
To date none of the other GOP primary declared candidates have won a single endorsement IN THE 11th CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. I don’t know how to scorecard that one but if I need some help maybe the Amador folks can give me some tips.
