Peter Boylan, communications director for Hanabusa for Hawaii, is capitalizing on a controversial memo from the campaign of Sen. Brian Schatz. In an email Wednesday, Boylan states:

Our opponent, Brian Schatz, just sent around an insulting memo, attacking our campaign and arguing that his support from Washington D.C. insiders makes this race a done deal. 

 He also offered divisive theories about Hawaii voters, arguing that the ideology of a single group of voters will trump the broad coalition of interests that has made Hawaii the warm, inclusive place we all love.

We need to respond by demonstrating that our supporters are committed to taking on Schatz and his Washington D.C. political backers. 

Please contribute $5 to show Brian Schatz’s campaign that arrogance and divisiveness won’t work in Hawaii. …
