Aggressive tactics for the Final Approach. On Saturday Team Dubie headed out to areas of the state they are likely to win. While rallying the base it seems they have cast aside any subtle efforts at persuading un-decided voters and are now going for the hard sell. Dubie’s green shirts are vowing to visit 100,000 homes with a mildly aggressive final message. Dubie said,
“We have a simple message. ‘Knock, Knock. Are you for Brian Dubie?’”
Activity during the final week of October’s campaign has seen a libel suit filed against Dubie for Governor among other RGA campaign related legal battles that have heated things up even further. Dubie has received a raft of criticism from friends and foes about the damage nasty campaign tactics have had on his “nice guy” reputation. In rebuttal his staunch ally Barre Mayor Tom Lauzon had some supportive comments yesterday. Appearing at a rally on a cold and rainy day clad only in a jacket, he was asked if he was cold. The Barre mayor claimed to be warm and toasty
“…I’m basking in the glow of the Brian Dubie campaign,”
Is there a light under that bushel after all?
Continuing his glowing praise and maybe in a muddled attempt to address questions about the Lt governor’s character as presented by his campaign tactics Lauzon made this claim:
“Character is defined by what you do when the camera isn’t on you.”
Kind of an odd observation from the mayor that once, during a meeting (off camera) threw a city councilman’s cellphone across a room hard enough to shatter it. So we will have to take his word for this one, it’s a judgment call based on character.
