I’m on vacation and got too long a nap, so I was up late with some spare time. I thought I’d put some observations on the hapless Pomeroy campaign into video for y’all. Enjoy. If you don’t see playback controls above, move your cursor over the image and they’ll appear at the bottom.

It’s been a rough week for Earl Pomeroy. First his campaign gets caught trying to have an NDSU College Republicans display removed, which they have to hastily deny.

Then it comes out that Pomeroy’s campaign has a stalker following Berg around and videotaping him. It’s turned out to be pretty fun in that people can talk into the camera and finally feel as if they’re getting a chance to talk to Earl Pomeroy, who isn’t showing his face in public at all.

Really. Check it out, go to Pomeroy’s site and click Upcoming Events. It says, “There is nothing I enjoy more about campaigning than getting around North Dakota to meet with the folks that I represent.” Well, it’s turning out to be a repeat of last year’s August without a single open meeting between Earl Pomeroy and his constituents.

Pomeroy’s been losing in the polls for months, consecutively, and all he has left is to get the labor unions and national Democrat donors to start running ads to scare the elderly and farmers. You can always expect the Democrats to pull out the decades-old ploy of how the Republican will take away their Social Security. What’s hilarious is that Pomeroy’s trying to imply that someone who’s been in political office for a shorter time is the career politician. Really, Earl? Keep ’em coming.

(Is it any wonder that the New York Times says his campaign needs “political triage” at this point?)
