On Monday I reported that the Republican nominee for Attorney General, Greg Zoeller, failed to mention his opponent, Jon Costas, in his acceptance speech at the state GOP Convention (you might say he pulled a Schellinger.)

Zoeller sent an e-mail to say that it was the result of a mistake in a hand written speech concocted in the 10 minutes before it was delivered and no indication of hard feelings.  He says, however, that I was right to point it out. 

Zoeller thanked Costas in person before the speech and plans to meet with him again in person to apologize for the public error. 

Says Zoeller, “Jon did a fine job and I didn’t mean to slight him.”
