"Poor little Johnnie"
Roscoe at OCBlog shows no mercy to John Campbell, who, it now appears, will enter the 48th district house race in the coming days.
The blogosphere seems united on this one: Campbell comes off as a petulant little brat. His decision is motivated by petty revenge over a perceived slight (when did he become the heir apparent to Ackerman's leadership position?), and it's a decision that is a poor one from a political standpoint, IMO. What happens if (God forbid) Campbell's presence causes a Marilyn Brewer victory? It's a scenario that is just as likely as Campbell himself winning, and one that would ultimately lead a massive backlash from OC conservatives. Campbell wouldn't be able to win an election for dog catcher
UPDATE: Strange that the Senator's new blog (launched just this week) has nothing regarding his little temper tantrum. And no comments, despite the fact that it has been linked extensively inside the Bl Orangeosphere. (I just made that up, and I already regret it. Let's forget it ever happened.)
