He's the least-experienced candidate. And his slating was not exactly a fair election. And we resent outsiders telling us who to vote for from a funeral pulpit--what a classless move.<BR/><BR/>Sorry.

Julia has pretty much always had a campaign person on staff, and they office and work out of the state party HQ.<BR/><BR/>But the Carson committee paid almost nothing for that earlier in 2007...perhaps a strange bookkeeping error?<BR/><BR/>Maybe that paragon of bookkeeping excellence, Wilson, has a clue?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-10849799648366772842008-02-09T15:58:00.000-05:002008-02-09T15:58:00.000-05:00Gary,<BR/><BR/>I checked today, and those payments from the Carson committee to state party were payroll reimbursement.<BR/><BR/>Routine stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-86912995217365426162008-02-09T13:48:00.000-05:002008-02-09T13:48:00.000-05:00*yawn* Andre is the same old same old.
