Fellow Conservatives Reluctant To Associate With Sherber
Scandal-ridden senator struggling to rally support from CNS colleagues
BROOKINGS, BIE--After admitting in June to an extra-marital affair with a senate aide, freshman Senator Driscoll Sherber's approval ratings plummetted, while Conservative party leaders publicly rebuked his behavior. But now, over three months later, Mr. Sherber is still struggling to gain support from his Conservative colleagues.
Sherber, who is up for re-election in 2010 after winning a close victory over Democratic-Reformist Julie Grendhau in last December's special election, has been trying for weeks to schedule fundraising events and campaign rallies with Biereland's prominent Conservatives. But so far, all have declined, according to the Greene Mountain Press.
The GMP reports Sherber's campaign first approached fellow CNS Senator Jhana Schueler, who is the most revered Conservative politician in Biereland. Ms. Schueler, who is a popular figure in Biereland politics, declined the invitation from the Sherber campaign, as did Senator Brad Bearns and Governor Jenny Duschowitz, all of whom campaigned heavily for Sherber during the final days of his 2008 election.
So far, only a handful of Conservative state legislators have agreed to endorse Sherber and appear with him at campaign rallies. The newspaper reports that privately, state CNS leaders want a stronger, scandal-free candidate to run against the embattled in a primary election. However, the party has had difficulties recruiting top-tier candidates, according to the article.
Sherber's office had no comment on the matter Tuesday, when asked by GNN and other media outlets. The Biereland Conservative Party also declined to comment.
