The truth is, he was nothing more than an investor (and a relatively small one at that - $10K) in the bank when it started up — just as I was with First National of P.O. way back when. Rossi never worked at the bank, participated in its management or held any board position. He simply invested in the startup. Yet to listen to the commercials you would think he stole the life savings of old ladies.<br /><br />Another was his "business relationship" with Michael Maestro... All Rossi did was buy an apartment building from him some years ago. Yet again, the commercials would lead you to believe the two were serious business partners, and that Rossi was heavily involved in the fraud Maestro was arrested for.<br /><br />Rossi never attacked Murray personally — only her record in Congress. And then there was that whole Gregoire farce about how we have no deficit...<br /><br />But we do agree on one thing — I too am glad its over.Lary Coppolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13125497144876522764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24356511.post-83267297320276715252010-11-24T11:59:10.567-08:002010-11-24T11:59:10.567-08:00good job on handicapping.
Maybe now with Sanders ...good job on handicapping.<br /><br />Maybe now with Sanders gone from the Supreme Court, we can try again to outlaw lies.<br /><br />I don't know what you are referring to on the truth about Rossi, but Rossi had two clandestine GOP groups sponsoring ads, which I believe is a violation. Nice try Rove and Cheney.<br /><br />My favorite local ad was Reichert saying how his opponent supported Pelosi and Reid.. Odd, since she has never held office before!<br /><br />all in all, I am glad it's over.Craig Petersonnoreply@blogger.com
