Schock's site lends a hand to Callahan

I looked over Colleen Callahan's official web site, and I have to say that, so far, it lacks real content. Except for providing readers with some contact information and a way to donate, there's not a lot there.

In other words, Aaron Schock's site has Colleen's beat all to Hell. Sorry, guys. Maybe that will change.

But not all is lost. Schock's campaign is so itent on making a case that his huge campaign warchest makes him invulnerable to challengers, the site links to a Springfield State Journal-Register article about how Callahan has to play catch-up in the cash-raising biz.

The problem (for Schock) is that this article didn't just talk about cash. The article humanized Callahan by introducing people to members of her family. I imagine not many people know that her daughter, Brittney Burns, is a top-notch lawyer with tons of experience fighting crime and working with the legislature. Sounds to me like she's be a huge asset to her mom if she gets elected to Congress.

The message seems to be that Schock is the front runner 'cause he has a ton of cash, while Callahan has her smart and politically talented family on her side.

Were I operating her site, I'd be sure to link to the same article.
