In my opinion, Long made a grave mistake. Had he have played the victim of the attack ad and not gone negative while casting a shadow at Nodler and Goodman it would shown his as being above the fray. Now, he is deeper in the mud than any of the rest of the candidates. If Long does not win on Tuesday evening, I think that one can point to the negative campaigning in the last few days as the reason why.

Show-Me Opinions weighs in on Long's negative robocalls
Show-Me Opinions offers a dim view of Billy Long's attack robocalls against Sen. Jack Goodman in the Seventh District Congressional race:
Billy Long thinks he can buy an election with the help of his rich friends, and by spreading manure about his clearly more qualified opponents.
ReplyDeleteNo principles. No ideas. No self-control. No class. Come on southwest Missouri, we have better choices than Mr. Long. We will look like clowns if we send one to represent us.

ReplyDeleteWe don't need a congressman named Billy....can't help but wonder if his middle name is Bob....he acts like a Billy Bob...please don't send this embarrassment to Washington..
ReplyDeleteCareer politicians have to go. How can we expect them to change when they say one thing at home and do another in Jefferson City? They certainly won't get any better in Washington. Billy Long is the only choice!
ReplyDeleteWhen our state senators say one thing at home and do another in Jefferson City, they certainly aren't going to have a sudden change of behavior when we send them to Washington.
ReplyDeleteBilly Long is the only conservative alternative!
Billy long is the only LIAR in this race. He LIED about not going negative, LIED about earmarks and LIED about Jack... He might be our next Congressman, but he'll burn in hell for what he's done.
ReplyDeleteJeff pay attention you goon....how can we trust a man who says one thing in Springfield and then does another before EVEN GOING TO DC! Remember his pledge not to go negative at the MRA debate? Hmmmmm now he is sending out robocalls with out and out lies and smears ....
