Like ACORN?

And Phil, regarding your snarky remarks, it was not clear to me that you had read the endorsement in the Cape Gazette. On the politics of the Cape, as a consistent reader for years, I would characterize Forney, the owner and responsible person for editorial policy, as leaning Conservative. If you don’t agree, that’s fine!

You are both making much ado about nothing.

“Regarding out of state help in the campaign, that is not unusual. Did you ask Ruth Briggs King if her campaign has any paid workers or out of state support? How about the RNC? I’m sure she does!”

It appears here Perry has no problem with out of state help for his candidates.
This is previous quote is from comment 4 from the thread “Doubting Robert” posted on Sept. 11th.

However, less than one month ago on August 15th, Perry thought this was a horrendous idea.

Here are Perry’s thoughts expressed on comment 1 of the thread “Help out in VA from your own home”
“1 Perry
Isn’t this a State of Virginia matter?
How would we here in Delaware react if people from Virginia were campaigning in a Delaware US Senatorial campaign, for Beau Biden, as an example?
I am pretty sure we would say that outsiders are not welcome. It is none of their business!
Here a request is being made to participate in the Virginia Gubernatorial campaign. No, that is definitely wrong!
I can understand people being involved in a Presidential campaign in any state; but no, not in an intra-state political race like this one.
Let us mind our own business. We have enough to worry about, enough to be active about, right here in our own State of Delaware.”

Now, I actually pointed out to Perry that Democrats do the importation of Out of State Union members on a regular basis and that the Kent Democrat Chair bragged in the pages of the Delaware State News of getting over 100 Union members to help out in a Special Election. I did this on comment 3.

Here is Perry’s reply which is comment 4 posted on the morning of August 16th.

“Before I could possibly do anything, Tennessee, I would need a citation, which you have not provided.
I stand opposed to us intervening politically into the internal affairs of another state, on behalf of a particular candidate, I don’t care who does it!”

So on August 16th Perry was opposed to intervening politically into the internal affairs of another state, on behalf of a particular candidate, no matter who does it and yesterday it was no big deal. This is either evidence of:
1. Perry can’t remember his own positions from last month.
2. Perry will change his position at the drop of a hat if the new position will help a Democrat.
3. This is just a demonstration of the most egregious example of pure hypocrisy ever documented on this site.

Take your pick.

And on the “far left” comment, Robinson is far from that, rather an independent, fiscal conservative, pro-preservation, possessing many qualities which would appeal to Conservatives. Labels are at best inaccurate, at worst, falsehoods.

And Frank, interesting that you did not give one example of going negative. Robs campaign, and his literature, have focused primarily on Robs attributes.

I went to vote this morning at the polling station and there standing was Mr. Robinson. Surrounding Mr. Robinson were a swarm of yard signs that are NEGATIVE. They basically are a condensed version of his negative literature and he’s posted them at the actual polling places.

I actually was offended by this and don’t think it is going to work in his favor. I guess desperation results in negativity!
