McJoan recently spent a day with the Darcy Burner campaign, and writes about it over on Daily Kos.
It’s a smart campaign, and an innovative one. […] Darcy is willing to take quite a few risks in this campaign, but they’re strategic ones. As a “geek” and a former product manager, Darcy has a systems-based approach to the problem of taking on a popular incumbent. It’s led to much more unconventional campaign than the one she ran in 2006, partly because she has a higher degree of independence this time around. That’s largely because of the financial support she gets from the netroots. She doesn’t have to go to the telco lobby, or the pharmaceutical lobby, or the insurance lobby–she doesn’t have to necessarily dance to the DCCC’s tune this time around.
And you can trust Joan on this, because she’s credible.

Ditzy, I mean Darcy, finally found her way out of that house of mirrors huh? Sure took her long enough to figure out that reflection wasn’t actually her long-lost twin.
Don Joe spews:
Wingnuts! “Misogyny,” does not refer to the offspring of an unwed mother.
Just thought I’d point that out.
Marvin Stamn spews:
Of course Joan is credible, she’s a blogger on dailypus. Just as credible as rush or hannity.
I wonder why goldy wasn’t given the opportunity to spend the day with marcy darcy. Is she afraid of goldy?
Maybe some questions are better left unanswered.
Mr. Cynical spews:
From RealClearPolitics on rating of the Demcratic Controlled Congress:
Poll Date Approve Disapprove Spread 09/05-11 20.7 71.0 -50.3
I suspect Darcy’s election would drop this approval rating dangerously close to single digits.
Daddy Love spews:
I think Darcy should jump all over this economic meltdown and the Republican idiots who wish to hand over $700 billion of MY MONEY (to quote our libertarian w-nuts) To Hank Paulson and the Bush crime family with no strings attached and no oversight. She shoud create a series of ads touting her own economic plans (which align with Obama’s) and attacking Reichert.
Reichert is, I’m sure, being a good little Republican soldier on this one. She can HAMMER him on it and he can’t make “I love the environment” ads to get out of it.
Here that, Darcy? Oh, well, I’ll send this to her campaign manager after I research Reichert’s position.
W. Klingon Skousen spews:
re 4: Hitler had a high public approval rating. What’s your point?
The reason congress has a low rating is because of their failure to push a progressive agenda — which is what they were elected to do.

I don’t know about that. There are a ton of reports, video, and audio recordings showing “Rush and Hannity” lying through their teeth again and again.
Hey, how about if you present us with evidence of McJoan lying, and each time you do we’ll give you TWO LIES EACH from Rush and Hannity.
I think that sounds fair.

He appears to confuse correlation with causation on a regular basis. I’ve told him before that he is in no way equipped to interpret statistical information.
Mark1 spews:
Keep up that wishful thinking and ignorance Mommy Love; I know Ditzy is slow, but even she will come to the realization that Bush is leaving, so her tired old campaign against him is yet again moot. Try not to get your panties in such a bunch girl.

Darcy has to raise money from the out-of-state nutroots because nobody who actually LIVES in the 8th CD will talk to her.
