You can lead a Candidate through a race, but you can't make her Think!

Perhaps some people are too smart for their own good. Or, their genius in some areas is paired with shocking incompetence in others. You know, kind of like how Einstein flunked English class.

Exhibit A: Candidate for Fort Bend County Attorney Carolyn McDaniel

Maybe you read this post where I highlighted the numerous simple spelling errors in her campaign materials. Of course, you can read some of them for yourself which remain on her campaign website here and here. My personal favorite is "forfiture".

The thing is, if her credentials are to be believed (and I have absolutely no reason to doubt them), this woman is no dummy: A biology degree, former NASA researcher, member of the Bar, etc.

And yet, "there she goes again"...

She fixed one or two errors, but her recent ad in the FBC GOP April Newsletter still highlights her "ACCESSABILITY" and her desire to "Improve Transparance".

I have another semi-amusing item worth pointing out, but it would just seem like piling on... :)

She says we should elect our County Attorney as the one who has "Consistently Campaigned on the Future." I'm sorry, Ms. McDaniel, but I'm going to vote for the candidate who knows how to use spell check. It's not asking too much to insist on a County Attorney that knows how to spell, is it?
