Novick stumbles in debate, forced to criticize Wyden and DeFazio

Poor Steve Novick has had a tough week.

First there was his new TV ad which hasn't generated anything close to the kind of buzz that his first TV ad did several months ago.

Then his claim to having been "lead counsel" on the Love Canal case has been disputed.

And then yesterday he stepped in a big pile of you know what in a debate with Merkley, where he found himself boxed into a corner by his own past statements - which has become something of a recurring theme with Novick.

Unfortunately for Steve, next week is probably going to be a lot worse for him than this week was. That's because Vietnam War hero (triple amputee) and former Senator from Georgia, Max Cleland, will be in Oregon to fundraise and campaign with Jeff Merkley.

Tuesday April 29th Cleland and Merkley will hold a Town Hall meeting in Portland (9:00 AM @ Portland State University) to discuss the Iraq War and veterans issues. Then later in the day they will hold another Town Hall on the same subjects at the University of Oregon in Eugene.
