Vying for a 'V' label: Victory     view story
Wednesday, October 20, 2004
ROBERT J. McCARTHY - - Buffalo News
|
If there's one label Brian M. Higgins proudly wears in his campaign for Congress this fall, it's that "D" behind his name. The one that stands for Democrat. The one he shouts about and emphasizes at every opportunity. It's a far different approach for his opponent, Nancy A. Naples. In a congressional district dominated by 80,000 more Democrats than Republicans, Naples is delicately tiptoeing across her Republican line. If there's a label for her, it's "independent." Call it the campaign of the Capital "D" and the small "r." As Higgins proclaims his Democratic philosophy in speeches and omnipresent campaign ads, Naples professes loyalty to President Bush and the GOP - but at a respectful distance. |
