“We encourage Hawai’i residents to get out, be active, and stay healthy, not just for this week, but throughout their lifetime.”
What she didn’t say:
This campaign, Lingle will appear tough and strong, even at the expense of her own Lieutenant Governor, James R. “Duke” Aiona. An especially humorous example of this is the above press release—sent out by her office—which includes quotes from both Lingle and Aiona. Immediately following Lingle’s quote is a statement touting the governor’s exercise regimen, saying she “has been swimming for more than a decade, and regularly begins her mornings at the YMCA pool, swimming 3,000 yards per day, four times a week.” Okay, we get it—Lingle equals Wonder Woman. Yet after Aiona’s quote, the release all but calls him a wimp, saying that he works out by “taking the stairs to his fifth floor office.”
