The senatorial vote is still about a month off, but I have an observation. I contacted both the Sullivan and Begich campaign offices some weeks ago about the negative and mudslinging campaign both were running, saying it didn’t help their cause at all. I have to say I have observed that the Begich office listened. I’ve seen less from them about Dan Sullivan, and some pretty nice positive ones from Mark Begich on his own behalf. This represents to me a willingness to listen to constituents. That’s really what we need … though obviously you can’t please everyone.
