But Turner doesn't appear ready to lead with her chin. Her voicemail message may end with "Be blessed," but will that be her tone during the campaign? She has conferred with well-known Democratic political strategist Gerald Austin, known for his take-no-prisoners style. He described his help as "free advice."
But perhaps he won’t. Perhaps Cummings will lead with his chin again at some point in the months ahead and suffer a knock-out blow as a result (much more likely according to the Mandelson precedent). In which case the lobby and his many detractors will get their pound of flesh but, again, the electoral fundamentals will not be much changed.
"Laura's instinct is to lead with her chin, and push things from a purely partisan standpoint, that I think will ultimately help Culberson,” said a Democratic strategist based in Texas. “That’s a highly educated district with a lot of thoughtful voters who are willing to step away from party, but you have to give them a reason to do it. But if you play to type, then so will the voters, which is defaulting to Republicans."
