Rep. Duncan Hunter is running a despicable campaign
Whats worse? That Rep. Duncan D. Hunter, R-Alpine, is running an anti-Muslim campaign against his 50th district foe? That hes running it against a longtime Christian? That he denies running it at all? Or that he is doing it while he and his wife face a 60-count indictment that reads like a Shakespearean saga about spending more than $250,000 in campaign funds illegally over years while deciding to buy Hawaii shorts and describe the purchase as golf balls for Wounded Warriors and telling the Navy to go f--- themselves because it wouldnt help him justify a $14,000 family vacation to Italy?
Its beyond contemptible that Hunter, a Republican, is clinging to bigotry to retain his congressional seat while facing a strong challenge from Democrat Ammar Campa-Najjar. Hunter has lost his way.
Hunter has suggested his opponent is a radical Muslim working to infiltrate Congress. Hes run a despicable ad calling his opponent a security threat and released a more despicable security alert from three retired generals turned lobbyists. Tuesday, Hunter even let his father, former Rep. Duncan L. Hunter, attack Campa-Najjars lineage and say the attacks have to do with terrorism, not racism. Please. Campa-Najjar has disavowed the actions of a grandfather he never knew and is distanced from a father he barely knows. Hes his own man. Unlike Hunter, who needs his fathers help.

It's great to see the San Diego Union-Tribune editorial board come out so strongly against Hunter, after being such a rabid -- and I mean rabid -- mouthpiece for RWNJs for decades.
