DCCC finds fault with Rollins Jamacian success

I don’t really see that particular item as winner. She received an award for bringing investment into Jamacia. Living half the year elsewhere was different, but this seems like a dud? How do you think it plays?
This will likley be but one nick in the the “death by a thousand cuts” strategy that Democrats have planned for Rollins. Then throw in some images of John Carney as hometown hero, middle class all around good guy who has spent his life serving only his beloved Delaware.
Remember that the last things Carney wants to talk about in this campaign are issues, ideas and his own resume. Having Rollins’s businesses and lifestyle to talk about makes her candidacy a gift from heaven for Carney.
It just looks like and is petty sniping.
Policy differences are fair game. Her success in Jamaica isn’t.
Her success in the private sector will be a stark contrast to Carney’s failure in the private sector.
I have to agree with the three of you. It is a sly way to remind people that she wasn’t here full time for a few years, but it is too cute and is petty. I also think the well over a thousand jobs here in Dover match very well to John Carney’s record of creating jobs for himself and his partners with taxpayer money. For that matter the homes, construction, and retail jobs that Glen Urquart helped make possible aren’t bad either.
I think Rollins went a bit overboard by serving ‘Jamacian Jerk Caviar’ at her last party.
