More on Radnofsky | by GlennM
In general, I thought Radnofsky was well-spoken and smart. At first she came out swinging at KBH and I thought she was just another Dem whiner, but she did move on to positive things we can do for our country. She didn't take the bait when pressed about impeaching Bush ("We're better off moving forward than backwards ... [and it doesn't gain me anything as a candidate]"). And when someone came up with a shorter answer for the impeachment question ("that's for the current legislators, not candidates, to deal with") she warmly appreciated the more direct response. It's nice to see a candidate that can think on their feet.
She seemed to enjoy KBH-baiting. While KBH has a reputation as a moderate, my take is that the current Rep machine keeps KBH in line. Which means that even if KBH is a moderate her current record is of a strong conservative. The response letters I've gotten from KBH on issues certainly haven't shown any original thinking, they're just Rep talking points reguritated. BAR noted that KBH is surprisingly most vulnerable on the three main issues in KBH's campaign (but BAR didn't mention what they were, and I can't find a re-election web page for KBH).
All in all, Radnofsky is a candidate I'll be happy to support.
