FeedsReplying to a comment on Steve Novick's Misleading E-Mail
The email was certainly written on the campaign's behalf, as Hoyt says he's volunteering to raise funds for the campaign. The alternative to this inference is to suggest that the Novick campaign has very little control over its volunteers, which would be a different, yet substantive, issue for the Novick campaign.
The email certainly insinuates that Jeff Merkley supported the Iraq War at its beginning. That claim is patently false. It is misleading to position Steve Novick as the anti-war candidate in this race when BOTH candidates were arguably against the war from the beginning: Jeff Merkley has a statement that confirms his early opposition, and while I trust that Steve opposed the war early, too, there's no substantiating documentation of that. And that's okay, because Jeff Merkley isn't calling Steve Novick an early pro-war candidate.
