Silliness! Ken Avidor and Eva Young continue to obsess over this one single issue, as if everything can be traced back to PRT. Eva and Ken are obsessed with PRT and anyone involved with it - why is that? Why does this dead issue (dead in Minnesota, at least) continue to inspire Eva and Ken to draw a crooked line from every single politician's failure back to PRT?

EY: Ken Avidor authored this post. Also, PRT is not something I write about frequently. I think PRT worked against Cox, but wasn't the reason he lost. Cox's statement at a public forum that there was a PRT test track in Duluth when there wasn't hurt him.

ATE:
What is their motive in all of this? What is the point? Can anyone honestly say that this is the most compelling message to come out of yesterday's newsworthy day in politics?

EY: I personally don't believe PRT was the prominent issue in the campaign. It was not the subject of radio ads, or the focus on Kevin Dahle's campaign. However - Cox stumbled on the issue during a forum - and it became an issue. This reminds me of how Judy Johnson stumbled on a question about Intelligent Design creationism during a chamber of commerce debate. Johnson said she believed in creationism - wanted both points of view taught:

ATE:
This blog has an agenda: to discredit PRT and everyone associated with it. I don't know for sure what drives that agenda, but in my experience usually a financial motive is at the heart of such obsessiveness.

EY: This blog has an agenda which is described at the top of the page - to expose Non-Representative Bachmann for the nut, liar and bigot that she is.

ATE:
And we already know that Ken is involved with light rail corporate interests through the astroturfing Light Rail Now site.

What I do know is this: for whatever reason, this relentless agenda has persisted for nearly half a decade, and it is filled with nonsense like this latest post.

EY: Ken Avidor has been highly interested in debunking PRT. You and others seem to be obsessed with debunking Ken Avidor. It's interesting that a private citizen such as Avidor for merit an attack blog.

Further comments on this matter can be taken to weiner watch - not here.

Update - ATE is complaining about this over at Weiner Watch in case people want to read about this.
