[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This race sets a record for the amount of political mailings I've received for one election. By far. Today's from Katcher is viscerally shocking, with a picture of the mother of the deceased boy on the front saying "When a drunk driver killed my son, Parisa didn't even listen to us."

I cannot begin to imagine this woman's pain and grief.

I have been undecided about who to vote for, but this kind of ad doesn't sit well with me.

The CA position serves the entire community. The election shouldn’t be centered around this one family.

And pushing this tragedy so prominently into campaign marketing materials feels slimy.

The race is certainly NOT centered around one family though this thread seemingly is. The race is a referendum on the CA’s alleged poor management of the CA office $ that is why the police union endorsed Katcher.

Parisa has been endorsed for re-election not only by the Washington Post, but by Barbara Favola, JD Spain, Don Beyer, Jennifer McClellan, Alphonso Lopez, Jennifer Carroll Foy, Patrick Hope, Jay Jones, Matt de Ferranti, and Mary Margaret Whipple, among others.  These are good people.  Katcher has seemed increasingly desperate.  [/quote]

This EXACTLY why I am not voting for Parisa. These people all bow down at the altar of the ACDC and always toe the party line. Rarely do you see the elected Democrats or the ones in the inner circle endorse anyone other than the candidate chosen in the back room of our own Tammany Hall.

Parisa was not qualified four years ago. And she hasn’t taken the time to learn the job. She is all about sound bites and not about doing the job. This elected official actually matters. Having a bad CA means our judicial system doesn’t work. Josh seems to have more experience and I’m going to give him the chance.[/quote]
