This, which arrived yesterday, is one of my favorite press releases of the campaign season:
Watch and learn, aspiring political martyrs, as former state Republican Party chair Diane Tebelius, who's now running for state legislature in the eastside's 48th District, turns the arrest of a Bellevue "sign slasher" into more proof that her opponents will stop at nothing to keep her from going to Olympia and upending the "status quo." (Click to enlarge.)
Oh, and:
Tebelius added that the sign slashing came a day after new poll results show a dead heat in the race.
Who paid for that "dead heat" poll? Republicans who want to see Tebelius defeat Democratic incumbent Ross Hunter.
