Uh oh, time to hit the panic button at camp Tedisco apparently. Tedisco has just announced that he will be running the campaign himself. From Albany. And get lost, DC types. This is good stuff.
Now, I'm not sure how much I actually believe that the folks at the RNC and NRCC are really going to let Tedisco run his campaign himself. They simply have far too much invested in this race, especially Michael Steele.
But one thing is for certain. They are most definitely feeling the heat. So much so that they are willing to pull a stunt like this.
It's time to separate "the real Jim Tedisco" from the partisan negativity his own national party has portrayed in the campaign so far, Republican and Conservative congressional candidate James Tedisco said.
Reacting to his Democratic opponent's surge in the polls, Tedisco said Thursday he's taking control of the content of his advertising from the National Republican Congressional Committee.
"I'm taking over and we're going to run a campaign that relates to the people of the 20th Congressional District," he said.
The first depiction of "the real Jim" will air in a new television commercial set to debut this evening, he said.
...
Tedisco said he going forward the content of his ads will be more positive with him making the decisions instead of the national party.
