How Inept Can a Campaign Get?

Rodney Glassman, the Democratic candidate for Senate in Arizona, has no hope of winning — he trails John McCain by 34 points. No-hope candidates tend not to attract the most competent staffers in the business, but this is a really hilarious misstep: Ed Driscoll got a robo-call from Glassman — in California. Driscoll lives in the 408 area code, in the San Jose area; the Glassman campaign obviously means to be targeting the 480 area code in Arizona, and is wasting money on calls to the wrong state.

Inept or brilliant? Perhaps there is a certain expectation by Democrats that one need not necessarily live within a certain district in order to vote within that district. Mr. Driscoll might want to follow up and see if Glassman campaign offers to help him secure an absentee ballot if he represents himself as a Democrat to them. Just a thought, for whatever it's worth.

Cordially,

A seance and a ouija board would be more appropriate. After all we know that dead people are going to cast ballots. This would provide documented proof that they all wanted to vote for a democrat.
