Lee Fisher's worthless endorsements

Harry Reid! David Plouffe! Man oh man, the Fish seems well on his way being the Democratic nominee, doesn't he? Well, in the words of Lee Corso, "Not so fast my friends!" Plunderbund has a good post up on the subject:

I know I’m not the only Democrat who thinks that Harry Reid’s support has some downside (after all, currently polling shows Reid getting blown out of the water in his re-election campaign next year in Nevada.) The Fisher campaign's website conspicuously omits any reference to Senate Majority Leader Reid’s support.

This is the same campaign website that’s been updated to continue to shamelessly promote the endorsement of David Plouffe, even though Plouffe’s company is a paid political consultant to the Fisher campaign.

Have you also noticed that while the Old Media has been quick to point out Fisher’s money and endorsements, they never mention the fact that Fisher has been dropping in the polls while Brunner has been rising? Funny how the polling in the race started to get ignored the second it stopped favoring Fisher, isn’t it?

Plouffe fundraising for Fisher

Well that is no good. In an email to Lee Fisher supporters, former Obama campaign manager David Plouffe writes:
As the end-of-year fundraising deadline approaches -- and with the holidays
almost upon us -- this week is an ideal time to help Lee Fisher make a strong
showing. We need Lee Fisher in the Senate to move Ohio forward on jobs, health
care, and energy -- and can't let Republicans bring back George Bush economics.
Just for that, I am not going to buy his book. It is clear that the establishment has chosen their candidate. But it is okay. The people will still get to decide this one. But I am guessing that the Fish is going to have another pretty strong showing in the financials at the upcoming deadline.
