Why is Herrera continuing to lie?

.
About 1 second after Brian Baird was visited by reality and decided to go out without getting carried out, we all knew that Herrera, the Legend in Her Own Mind, would immediately jump in.

After all, she never gave a damn about representing this district; her whole shtick was to get SOME marketable experience that would at least provide SOME level of believability to make people think this woman is even remotely qualified to serve in the legislature, let along Congress.

This career intern has precisely zero experience to serve in Congress. None.

Everyone alive who follows the political scene knew that Herrera would immediately announce. And although I shouldn't be, I AM surprised that she'd lie so blatantly about it, fake claims of RNCC recruitment and all that. I personally know that she was and is NOT the RNCC's first choice; that individual is still considering his or her options.

But Herrera is a liar. She has not been recruited, period. Her puppet master, Cathy McMorris-Rogers, in charge of candidate recruitment for the House, may say that now (although, strangely, McMorris remains silent in the face of these fake claims, one way or the other) but as another blogger has pointed out, Oliver the Spaniel could have given a better, more thoughtful, more prepared interview last night on Victoria Taft then a moron who, while having allegedly been "recruited" for the "past 6 months," gave precisely zero thought to the issues or how she would address them.

That Herrera has no integrity is obvious. Her efforts to try and get people to break their word by getting them to do "co-endorsements" shows a lack of character and political prostitution that is sickening in every respect.

We do not need another empty suit in government. The emptiest suit on the planet is already running the show. Why we should put in a McMorris clone, who will do whatever McMorris wants, however and whenever she wants it, is simply beyond me.

Had Baird voted his district on the porkulous, cap and swindle and socialized medicine; had he faced us last August without name calling or faking death threats, we never would have heard of Herrera in this cycle. Baird would have politically nailed her like a 2X4. We all know it. And the RNCC certainly wouldn't have "recruited" a total light weight like her to take him on, if they were going to "recruit" anyone at all.

What we need is someone honorable, qualified, and committed to the people instead of their own career and someone who won't view people as tools to help build their own agenda.

And that excludes Herrera.
