George LeMieux Team Pounds Adam Hasner's 'Moderate Leanings'

The Republican candidates looking to challenge Democratic U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson in 2012 continue to spar over who is the real conservative in the race.

The latest attack comes from the team behind former U.S. Sen. George LeMieux and they are taking aim at former state House Majority Leader Adam Hasner for a mailing in 2004 which included a clip from a newspaper praising him for moderate leanings.

It did not take long for Hasners dishonest political rhetoric to crumble, said Brian Seitchik, LeMieuxs campaign manager, on Monday. Hasner should have known better than to masquerade as a true conservative when only a few years ago he was advertising his moderate leanings in his own campaign literature. Not only is Adam Hasner running from his moderate eight-year voting record in Tallahassee, now hes running from his past campaigns.
