WDT: Will the Self Interest Card Be Played in the Western Counties ?

    An emerging strategy in the final weeks of the campaign appears designed to galvanize Watertown area voters behind the GOP Congressional candidate who lives near Fort Drum.  The upcoming sequestration cuts have many people nervous and I bet those possible cuts will become the strategy to turn around Matt Doheny's numbers in our neck of the woods.
    Everyone is always afraid of being seen as provincial, but I don't mind saying that all things equal, I prefer representives from my town and not from four hours away.
    A story on the defense cuts appearing 24 hours after a closed door pow wow with the publisher....Sounds like cause and effect to me.
