Brash easily rattled
Exposing Dr Brash's sensitivities is proving astonishingly easy, according to Labour Campaign Strategist Pete Hodgson.
"In the last day he has not only failed to give clear answers to questions on nuclear ships and the Iraq war, he also pouted and protested that just asking such questions represents a personal attack.
"His support for the Iraq war is a matter of public record, as are his multiple and contradictory positions on nuclear ships.
"This is the same Dr Brash who appears on billboards around the country inviting a head to head comparison with Prime Minister Helen Clark. But the moment his views are put under the microscope, he calls foul.
"He is more easily rattled than a shop shelf in an earthquake."
