There’s Utterly Classless…Then, There’s Chris Doherty

by at 5:29 pm.

Words can’t describe. I really mean it this time. I think images can, though. So here’s a scan of the latest Doherty state Senate direct mail piece. Front and back. Click on them for the full scan in PDF format.

First, the front:

It gets worse. And less classy. The back:

Particularly classy and so very mature is the photoshopped photo on the back of Eileen in a crown. I mean, WTF? And the slogan is like something out of 7th grade. “I know you are, but what am I?

And once again, of course, Doherty twists facts in order to attack Eileen - modus operandi for his entire campaign.

This whole thing smells of severe desperation - Doherty obviously thinks he’s going to lose next Tuesday and is pushing a gambit that is sure to backfire like Kerry Healey in a parking garage. But one thing is definitely for sure. We now have proof positive that this whole campaign is about Eileen Donoghue, not about Chris Doherty. Taking down Eileen - that’s the only thing that matters here, for those Doherty-Cox supporters. A toaster could have run against Eileen and we would have seen the same campaign.

The manner in which Doherty has conducted his whole campaign is extremely telling. He might be trying to attack her character here - laughably, ridiculously - but it is his poor character that is showing through like a beacon in the night.

By the way, Chris, you should really leave photoshopping comedy to Jon Stewart and his crew. (Added note: who the f wrote the drivel on the back? Jim Campanini? I think Chris should also leave marking writing to real marketing people…)
