    A couple [of other] things, SLC signs coat the streets not only because he has a large amount of private funds to buy signs but also because he and his supporters have been placing them on state right away and people’s private property illegally.

    I know several people downstate, who gave permission for large Brady signs to placed on their property who had people trespass on their yards and property and place small SLC signs.

    I know I have asked this question several times before, but once again if there are any people from Whitney Campaign reading this, what was Whitney’s fund raising plans before this appeal?

    So in case all these losers take me on as consultant & start winning, I don’t want to hear any bullshit.

    The only problem I might have assisting you would be if you won, people saying you would have won anyway. So I’d want some sort of statement by you upon taking me on as consultant that you probably would lose.
    & also I would want to take on other campaigns. Esp. ones which clearly have ZERO chance to win.

    Rich, you seem to have enough bseline polling but another wouldn’t hurt.
    THEN, call a press conference to announce you are going to conduct a PLAS campaign-to win.
    Then do some more polling in a day or 2. There should be a spike.
    Then consult with your Lib. opponent. assuming you both agree the Lib will withdraw & endorse the Green & possibly campaign together, call another press conference to announce that.
    THEN, more polling. Should bre another spike. You should reach 15%.
    THEN call another press conference. Demand to be in all subsequent debates. Show your polling as ground.
    I have other suggestions but you get the picture.

    Rich, I volunteer to help you conduct a PLAS campaign.

    Rich Whitney-you are going to lose.
    Good candidate, good positions & ideas. Surprisingly good interview-on the part of the interviewer!
    But your strategy -losing. You want to ride the tide of anti-encumbency etc. Been there done that. The voters just swish from the dems to the reps & reps to the dems. The voters still figure you to lose. You need to change that dynamic.
    You need to try PLAS.
    November day after elections-I told you so.
