ED CASE: ANYTHING TO GET ELECTED 

This afternoon, Ed Case released a new campaign ad wrapping himself around President Obama.  On the heels of consecutive polls showing Case trailing Charles Djou, this is the latest ‘Hail Mary’ pass by his campaign.

Chairman Jonah Ka’auwai responded to the new television ad: 

“Ed Case will do absolutely anything to get elected.  In the course of this campaign, Case has described himself as an Independent, a strong Democrat, a moderate and a conservative.   During Monday night’s OHA, Honolulu Advertiser and Hawaii News Now debate, he told us he voted for the Bush tax cuts before he voted against them.  The truth is, Case has voted for dozens of tax increases and seems to have a hard time keeping his positions straight in his own head.

“Voters deserve to know exactly what a candidate stands for before they cast a vote for that individual.  With Ed Case, who seems to go with the politically convenient winds, Hawai’i cannot be sure what we will get.”
