Terry Lynn Land - A Semi Truck? Really?

[ebacon]

Dear Terry Lynn Land,

As a Ted Nugent type of nature loving person, I have to ask what you were thinking when you chose to cruise around in a semi tractor. Really? Ted Nugent, for all the faults that Democrats throw at him, at least had the common sense to stick with something as small as a 4x4.

You lost my vote, Terry.

Uh, what? Context, please.

Probably loves semis.

If you come to my home, you might wonder why I have so many ancient audio equipment.

Some like old stamps.

Some new Porche.

Terry Lynn Land is running for a Senate office to represent Michigan. Her campaign has a semi tractor as a sort of mascot. It strikes me as wasteful from the get-go.

It is a mascot...as in political gimmick? What is the aim?

Heard of "coal rolling" as a wasteful protest? Combine that with the symbology of an inappropriately scaled vehicle and there's your wingnut.

Koched up Ann Coulter wannabe.

Sorry Ed.

Does she drive it herself? Is she pulling a trailer outfitted as a campaign bus?

If not, I'm not impressed. Just driving a tractor bobtail is a wasteful way to blow a lot of carbon, and they are an accident risk driven that way too. They don't brake well and they spin-out easily.

I do not know the aim, but you ask a hard question. That is why I respect you on this board.

The hard questions that politicians seem afraid to answer are simple. The questions go along the lines of this -- If you have your way what will your world be like?

I am not a prophet, but I know the following. Given a spectrum of choice between politicians that walk and politicians that cruise in semi-tractors, I will tend toward the walkers.

Don't be sorry. I would rather spar than lose you as a friend.
