Actually, Ms. Irvine.
Voters are most likely to put all of your points into the lowest category of priority when choosing a candidate.
What the folks really want is the right person for the job. Not that person's personality or political skills. And since character, values and morals are also not part of the job and in this day and age of political enviros nearly impossible to see up front? They put all that into the category of spin the bottle.
After doing some digging, I think your campaign would be well-advised to climb down off the moral high-horse and focus on letting us all know what and how you intend to do the job you're seeking. Along that path you may want to go back and revisit what people have actually been saying about you. I think you will see that there has been far less attacks on your 'character' than you think there have been.
just sayin.
Debra Irvine:
"Frequently people remind me, “You have to have a thick skin in be in politics.”
That's not enough — you have to have a strong core.
If you are contemplating running for office, think long and hard. If you want to run because you have a message to get out or for personal gain, think again. In fact, spare us all and forget about it.
I ran for state representative in 2010 because I wanted to make a difference in our district. To offer a different way of helping create jobs, setting our children on a path with quality education and improving the economic landscape of our district and Colorado. My reason for running for state representative for HD61 in the 2012 election remains constant.
Recently there have been public attacks on my character. Some people have said, “That's what you should expect when you run for office.”
No. You should not. Civility should not be a thing of the past. Doing the “right thing” shouldn't be either...."
