Bitter Smith Shows Schweikert Who's Boss

We said it earlier, but nobody believed us: Susan Bitter Smith stands a good chance in this race because she will claw, fight and use any tactic -- no matter how severe -- to win.

Not only is Susan willing to make up stories to distract the media from her lobbyist career, she has signaled that she is going to criticize David Schweikert's LACK OF LOBBYING experience as a weakness that shows he can't be effective.

BRILLIANT!

If Bitter Smith has been able to do that in such a short period of time, Laura Knaperek and Mark Anderson ought to be scared too! Who knows, maybe Jim Ogsbury will make the case that you really have to be a Washington lobbyist to have real experience, but we doubt it.

Bitter Smith is taking it an extra step by trying to embrace Schweikert for his strengths -- strong, conservative principles. Despite her LIBERAL record, she told CQ this week that Schweikert's "stances did not drastically differently from hers on the major issues."

What was Schweikert's response? SILENCE. He's essentially going to allow her to claim to be a conservative without fighting back.

Bitter Smith may not be a real conservative like she claims, but she's certainly more of a man than Schweikert.
