Democrat Council At-Large Candidates Enjoy
Full Hour of Free TV Promotion on MMC 16
"What FCC Equal Time Regulations?"
Montgomery County Council At-Large Candidate Jane de Winter (D) will "debate" fellow Democrat incumbent Nancy Floreen on MMC 16's Political Pulse program this week. It's sure to be a tense and controversial debate, when both candidates are from the same political party, right?
While almost every Democrat At-Large candidate has received at least 30 minutes of TV time on MMC 16 alone, de Winter joins fellow Democrat George Leventhal in now racking up a full hour of "me time" on the taxpayer-funded channel.
Meanwhile, I still have not received an invitation to appear.
All Republicans have also been excluded from the July 12 County Council At-Large debate being held by the Gaithersburg-Germantown Chamber of Commerce.
This unethical use of public airwaves, exclusion of the other party from a debate, and the unprecedented cancellation of long-traditional candidate forums in May and June by organizations apparently fiercely loyal to the struggling Democrat incumbents, really reflect the use of a 2006-era campaign playbook.
What can you do, other than wait for the reality of 2010 to catch up to them.
The voters of Montgomery County are angry. And now they are significantly poorer, as well, thanks to the County Council's massive tax increases last month. Do you think that made them more appealing to the electorate? Not quite!
So, you could join the handful of people tuning in to the 2006-era Floreen-de Winter "debate" (after all, you are paying for the program to be produced and aired)...
...or, you could join the hundreds of County residents who have tuned in to a video message from a new, next generation Montgomery County leader, with a completely and fundamentally different approach - me!
