1. The same people who encouraged him to run went behind his back to support his
opponent.

2. He could not run in in the Congressional race because he had given his word (something
he takes to heart) that he would not re enter the race @ a later date to the 3 dems running
in the primary in house district #2

3. The same good old boy system that has failed to stand up to the republicans also made
back room deals to Brown to give him their support ..... this is the same shit that has helped
the dem party show up like a limp unit on a wedding night, for many years now.

4. Calls were made to key contributors telling them not to support Hackett .... Reid, Schummer,
and Ron Emanuel I am looking @ you.

5. Allegedly Dept of Defense Photos made their way into the hands of one Dan Lucas of the Brown
campaign who showed them around the state to dem county leaders and accused Hackett of war crimes.
:tinfoilhat: My guess this is classic Rove ... attack @ the other person's strength. Hackett had been
on graves detail after the battle of Fullahuja (SP ????) and pix were taken of him around dead Iraqis.

6. Hackett had asked Brown if he was going to run and Brown said no ... then he got in the race.

7. Hackett not being a fighter is laughable

8. He narrow defeat by Schmidt (the data from that race is HIGHLY SUSPECT of fraud which helped Schmidt)
Was truly amazing .... that is a very conservative area .... if he pulled #s like he did there then his
chances in the general were much better then Brown's.
