Chet Culver, plagiarist.

You know, you want to give a guy the benefit of the doubt, but when the rumors keep getting confirmed over and over again, you've gotta believe there's something to it all. The Hotline blog is all over Culver's latest act of buffoonery.

Here's how the AP, in its daily story about the campaign, covered Nussle. The writethru crossed the wire at about 4:14 PM CT.

In a statement issued Friday, Nussle said he'll continue to push for raising teacher pay. ''My priority is to have Iowa set the standard for world class education and that starts by raising teacher pay above the national average,'' he said. ''As governor, I will work to ensure more reliable and more predictable funding for education so we have the best and brightest teachers in the classrooms teaching our children.''

The Nussle campaign noticed that the following appeared on Culver's site about 5:40 pm on Friday.

Chet Culver has been endorsed by the Iowa State Education Association. The union, represented by more than 32,000 members, chose Chet because he will fight for educators all over the state. "My priority is to have Iowa set the standard for world class education and that starts by raising teacher pay above the national average," he said. "As governor, I will work to ensure more reliable and more predictable funding for education so we have the best and brightest teachers in the classrooms teaching our children."

Krusty's got the whole release.

Comments:
Well, Chet hasn't come up with an original idea for his campaign yet, why should he start now?

Oh that's right, presenting actual ideas and a positive outlook for the future would go against the Iowa Democratic Party strategy of name-calling and negativism.

Iowans are going to tire REAL quick of Culver if all he does is to attack Nussle from now til November without putting out any tangible ideas of his own.

However, by looking at the other blogs, all the Democrat bloggers can seem to do is make more personal attacks, lets just see how well that will work for you guys.
