Feel Silly Now?

For all the mudslingers that spent a large amount of time and resources smearing Steve Kirby in anticipation of his running against Tim Johnson, it’s a good thing mud washes off easily.

“My family and I have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of support and encouragement from many of our South Dakota friends in recent weeks as I have considered a bid for the United States Senate”.

“Suzie and I want to thank all of our friends who have done so much to support us during this time of decision. I have decided, however, not to seek the 2008 GOP nomination for the United States Senate at this time.”

I’d ask if they felt silly but of course they wouldn’t, this is politics afterall and patience (how hard would it have been to wait for an official announcment?) isn’t one of the more popular virtues of those that participate in the process…

    No, Bob, actually, they are gloating that they won… and that they’ve done us all a favor by increasing our web traffic. Yay. See the post on DWC:
