Iowa State Senator and 1st Congressional District Candidate Dr. David
Hartsuch is telling news reporters that he was denied the chance to
speak at the McCain rally held in Davenport yesterday morning. The
reason? Apparently the McCain campaign staff was uneasy with some
comments Hartsuch made awhile back regarding traditional marriage. I
can understand why Hartsuch would be irritated with the snub. Speaking
at the event yesterday would have likely given Hartsuch his largest
forum of the campaign season to reach voters. McCain is running a
national campaign, and obviously at this point in the game every move
that his campaign makes is done with potential damage control in mind.
