Jason Meeker: Friends in high places
Photo by John Anderson
Just saw a commercial on MSNBC (10:15 AM — a video version of the full page ad that is running in the Chron this week from [Discount Electronics CEO and former Jason Meeker campaign treasurer] Rick Culleton. Photos of Lee and Jen. Photos of Jason and Randi. Highlights the pay raise. Will have to pay more attention next cycle. We will know the size of the buy in next week's 8 day out report, but the candidates do have the right to ask how much the buy is … but for now:The strange thing here is that Kim was the first council member to go in whole-hog on RG4N. And now she's not only been thrown under the bus, but backed over a few times for good measure.Big fonts — big pictures – big chip on shoulder!
Jason probably loves it — but I would not want to be a part of this if I were Randi — makes it look like she paid for the ad (unless you know the scoop on who Rick is) and she is bundled in an ad criticizing Lee Leffingwell. I think that was intentional. To make it look like Jason and Randi are running on the same platform.
Weird.
