"She accused me of lying. She said to a reporter, who read to me her statement that ‘it was a matter of character that I didn’t show up there.’ That wasn’t a matter of character, it was a negligent thing. I felt badly for it, it was surely to my harm that it happened but to stoop to the level that you are picking on me over whether or not I have character because I missed an airplane, in my estimation, is the kind of thing that really has been the hallmark, it has been the centerpiece, and she has constructed a series of centerpieces of her campaign that are all negative, they are all like that. I can’t wait to get in a discussion of the real issues because I think what will happen is we are going to find that the person she wants to be today is so dramatically different from the person that has been serving in the legislature.
