Bob Worsley Fearing That He Will Look Dumber Than He Is, Refuses To Debate Russell Pearce.

Spread the Word!Candidate Bob Worsley has decided it is not in his best interest to debate his opponent,
Russell Pearce, at the Az. Red Mountain Tea Party!

For the last two months I have offered Bob Worsley the opportunity to debate Russell Pearce at the largest conservative organization in his district, the Arizona Red Mountain Tea Party. Mr. Pearce accepted the invitation without hesitation.

It was not only an opportunity for Mr. Worsley to display and argue his differences but it was a request from the very constituents he will serve if elected to the State Senate. We want to hear from the man who desires to represent us.

Bob Worsley doesn't get it. America is going back to it's roots when voters demanded to hear from those who want to serve them. You see, based on our constitution it is "We the People" or the constituents who are the employer or boss, and not the politician.

Worsley is living in the past when America voted for candidates they didn't know or have time to get to know. That's why our country is in deep trouble. We use to vote every two years and then pray for that politicians were honest. That strategy didn't work and now we are doing our best to change it. Worsley wants people to vote for him even though he won't dare to debate his opponent and argue his positions. That doesn't sound like a State Senator to me.

Bob Worsley says he is a businessman and all indications are that he is successful. If that is the case he surely understands the process of hiring someone and the guidelines for doing so. Potential employees have to go
through an application and interview process. I'm sure Mr. Worsley would never hire anyone who hadn't gone through an entire interview process. As the employer for America, we the people ask no less of him. If Mr. Worsley wants to be hired to represent district 25, he must go through the interview process. He has a serious responsibility to the voters to let them get to know him.

I don't know about you, but I can't vote for someone who is afraid to debate his opponent. The Arizona Red Mountain Tea Party is tough but fair. We held an excellent debate between Matt Salmon and Kirk Adams. It was an amazing success because people were able to see both of them on stage together, debating the issues in front of their constituents. Many people thanked us afterward for organizing the debate for them.

That's how politics were built in America. We cannot rely on television, facebook, e-mail, twitter or you-tube to determine who we will vote for. There is nothing better than a face to face with those who you are interviewing to do a very important job for you. We can't afford to get it wrong any longer. Voting every two years just because of good looks or name recognition has to end.

Unless Mr. Worsley accepts our invitation to a debate with Mr. Pearce at the Arizona Red Mountain Tea Party, I can't vote for him and neither should you.

I ask you to respectfully encourage Bob Worsley to debate Russell Pearce at
the Red Mountain Tea Party by emailing him at bob@nzlegacy.com

Does Kirk Adams Still Feel This Way About Russell Pearce?

As the attacks against Russell Pearce continue to increase from the likes of Beth Coons (daughter of Ross Farnsworth Sr., Owner Farnsworth Wholesale Company), Tyler Montague (son of Dea Montague attorney & Senior Operation consultant at Bank of America free checking illegals), Liana Clarkson (teach at Mountain View High School), Jerry Lewis (administrator at Sequia Charter Schools) , Chad Snow (immigration attorney & workers rights), Randy Parraz (fail senate candidate for congress & founder of Citizen for Better Arizona), Caroline Cooper and the left, who are all supporting Bob Worsley, including Kirk Adams and Congressman Jeff Flake.

Here is what Kirk Adams had to say back in 2008 when Russell was under attack. I wonder if Kirk Adams stills feels the same today?

Vicious attacks on Pearce unfair

SECTION: MESA REPUBLIC 11; Pg. 26

LENGTH: 120 words

As a member of the Arizona House of Representatives, it has been my opportunity to observe and work with Rep. Russell Pearce. During my service in the Legislature I have never observed any language or conduct that even closely approximates the vicious attacks recently levied against him.

The outlandish and offensive attacks are perhaps the low point in the continuing slide toward the politics of personal destruction. As an elected official and a voter I wish to condemn the attacks in the strongest possible terms. We must no longer sit by and allow our political discourse to descend to the depths of something worthy of The Jerry Springer Show.

The voters of Mesa, and of Arizona, deserve better.
-- Rep. Kirk Adams, Mesa

Local Conservative Blogger Rachel Alexander Targeted Telling The Truth

I’ve turned the lights back on here at MichelleMalkin.com after “going dark” to help raise awareness about attacks on blogger free speech. Every phone call, e-mail, tweet, and letter you wrote yesterday to elected officials, state and federal government attorneys, and media outlets about SWAT-tings/convicted bomber and lying vexatious litigant Brett Kimberlin/his funders/his online cabal has made a difference. I am told there are now up to 83 congressional representatives who have signed their names to a letter – demanding “thorough examination at every level” of these terroristic crimes and threats – that will be sent to Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday. And I can tell you there’s much more in the works. At every level.

While we continue to speak out and work in front of and behind the scenes to support the bloggers targeted by Kimberlin, I want to call your attention to how speech-squelching progressives have targeted another conservative activist/blogger who needs your attention and help.

Rachel Alexander is a Townhall.com columnist, RightWingNews.com contributor, attorney, and veteran blogger atIntellectualConservative.com. In 2009, she was named RightOnline’s activist of the year for being a “force multiplier” through her training sessions to get citizens online. She founded her own personal bankruptcy law firm, served in the Arizona Attorney General’s office, and worked in the Maricopa County (Ariz.) Attorney’s Office as a Deputy County Attorney.

In April, the Arizona State Bar suspended Alexander’s law license for six months and one day (the order is here). The order became effective May 10. Less than a week later, she was granted a stay on the suspension as she pursues an appeal. But she’s been hit by another bar complaint as progressive opponents work to destroy her reputation and career.

Why did this happen to the dedicated, outspoken, and unapologetically conservative young lawyer? Her nightmare has all the makings of a partisan political vendetta and witch hunt.

Rachel’s boss at the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office was Andrew Thomas, a staunch law-and-order advocate who tried to clean up corruption in his ranks. Thomas also represented tough-on-illegal immigration Sheriff Joe Arpaio. In gunning for Thomas, the liberal State Bar is trying to claim underling Alexander as collateral damage. Her actual role in Thomas’s attempt to prosecute corruption was minor. Her direct supervisor Peter Spaw, who played a much larger role, has not been targeted by the Bar.

RightWingNews.com founder/veteran blogger John Hawkins, who stepped up to defend his colleague, first recounted the saga last fall:

Thomas ran for re-election in 2008 on a platform of stamping out public corruption with Sheriff Joe Arpaio. Together they decided to take on powerful politicians who had gotten away with corrupt acts for years. Don Stapley, the Chairman of the County Supervisors, raised thousands of dollars to run for president of the National Association of Counties, even though he did not have an opponent. He then spent that money on personal luxury items. Stapley allegedly spent $6000 of these funds at Bang and Olufsen electronics, along with $1300 for hair implants, $400 for candleholders and $10,000 for furniture for his home. He also spent these funds, solicited as campaign money, to buy tickets to Broadway plays and movie theatres. He bought flowers, paid the grocery store and department stores, paid for massages – and paid for family trips to Sundance, to Utah to ski, a trip for his son and friends to Florida and a three-week vacation in Hawaii for his entire family at a beach house costing approximately $11,000.

Thomas brought charges against Stapley and a jury indicted him. Stapley was also indicted for failing to disclose his real estate dealings on financial statements. His business partner, Conley Wolfswinkel, is a convicted felon. Thomas also brought charges against Supervisor Mary Rose Wilcox. She was indicted for voting on giving money to Chicanos por la Causa while failing to disclose she had a sweetheart loan deal from them. Wilcox, who drives a 2006 Corvette, gave herself prime real estate territory at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor Airport through the “minority-owned business” affirmative action program.

What happened to those indictments? They were all dismissed. Most of the prosecutions were conveniently transferred to now retired judges – Judge Kenneth Fields and Judge Gary Donahoe, who threw them all out. Donahoe was subsequently forced to resign in disgrace in June of this year. Realizing he could not get anywhere against the corruption in Superior Court, Thomas and Sheriff Arpaio filed a racketeering lawsuit against the supervisors, judges and their legal counsel. The supervisors refused to authorize any outside counsel to assist Thomas with it. Vastly understaffed, Thomas decided to turn the investigation over to the Department of Justice and withdrew the suit.

… Blogging while conservative is not a crime. Fighting against illegal immigration and corruption is not a crime. However, misusing the justice system for purely political purposes is absolutely despicable and the more sunlight that shines in on this issue in Arizona, the more the cockroaches who are persecuting conservatives will start to scatter.

(FYI: In a detail reminiscent of Brett Kimberlin target Aaron Walker’s legal nightmare in Maryland, it was a group of retired judges who were responsible for getting the corruption charges filed by Thomas against the supervisors dismissed. Useful tools, those retired judges, eh?)

Ever since the corruption case was dropped, the Arizona State Bar has waged a selective prosecution war against Thomas, Alexander, and another former Thomas employee, ex-deputy county attorney Lisa Aubuchon. The latest? Aggrieved county supervisors refuse to fund Alexander’s appeal, so she has been forced to file a notice of claim against Maricopa County for $67,000 to cover the legal fees of her fight against the law-license suspension. (The notice of claim is here.)

The free speech implications are alarming. Alexander was served with interrogatories last summer demanding to know everything she has ever blogged or written online between 2005-2010 on any topic, whether anonymously or signed, including comments.

I have uploaded the document and you can read it right here (click here)

I quote from Interrogatory Number 4:

“Please name any and all aliases that you have used in posting, publishing, or sharing any of your opinions on the Internet, including those ins blog entries, during the relevant time period.”

Fishing expedition, anyone?

Renowned libertarian lawyer Clint Bolick (who happened to be a critic of Thomas and Arpaio) has stepped up to serve as a mentor to Alexander as she appeals her case. Another Thomas critic concluded that the targeting of Alexander “is both selective and overreaching.”

Absurdly, one of the blog posts she was admonished over was one she didn’t even write – the John Hawkins post cited above! Arizona blogger Barbara Espinosa exposed the witch hunt:
If that’s not a gross infringement upon her First Amendment right I don’t know what is. Nothing ever happened to the Bar for this gross overreach, and the media never reported it. During the trial, the Bar prosecutors attacked Rachel for posting an article on her website written by a prominent conservative columnist defending her, John Hawkins of Townhall and Rightwingnews.

The toll Rachel has taken as a result of this witchhunt against her has been brutal. Rachel has been told by numerous people that they will not hire her services because of all this, and her bankruptcy business is suffering. An IP address from Maricopa County government was involved with hacking her website last June, getting it banned from Google for months and permanently banned from Google News. Her website traffic went from 4000 unique visitors per day down to 1000 as a result. She developed a stalker during the Bar trial whose harassment about the trial became so threatening she had to get a restraining order against him.
Arizona blogger David Roney added:
Alexander is being charged, despite a long, unblemished record at MCAO [Maricopa County Attorney's Office], solely for her role working on the RICO case. What was her role? She worked under her supervisor Pete Spaw’s direction. [Spaw] was an experienced RICO attorney who, according to my sources, started the drafts of the pleadings, finalized the drafts of the pleadings with Andrew Thomas, and developed the key theories in them. He exclusively dealt with opposing counsel, and filed all of the pleadings electronically. Alexander’s role consisted of mostly research for the pleadings, and taking direction from Spaw, nothing further. Yet Spaw was not charged by the Bar, only Alexander.

The real issue here is [an] allegation that Alexander sought to burden and embarrass county supervisors. The allegation is nothing short of hilarious on its face…. The supervisors, with a few exceptions, have done a pretty good job of bringing poor press and embarrassment upon themselves. And they did so all without the help of Alexander…

…digging deeper, the charges against Alexander reek of fulfilling a vendetta for running a political blog, and a conservative one at that. Most of their unfettered discontent comes from blog posts they attribute to Alexander, that she in fact did not write. The Arizona State Bar is anything but a right-leaning organization, and it appears to seek to censor a person with whom they disagree, while leaving others untouched.

Blogger Selwyn Duke came to the same conclusion:

So this is a story of corruption. There is the garden variety, in which those who walk tall and stand against evil are targeted by those who wish to continue enriching themselves. But then there is the kind that is another hallmark of despotic regimes: political persecution. It is a phenomenon of fascism, whereby those who toe your line get benefits, and those who don’t get intimidated into silence or, when they’re too stout-hearted, destroyed. By any means necessary.

Then, once big business and all other prominent people and entities are marching in lock-step, you have complete control over civilization. This is Chicago – and, it appears, Maricopa – politics. And we allow it to stand at our own peril.

Rachel could use any financial support you are able to help provide. You can donate through her Paypal at az4vlad@hotmail.com. Spread the word about her case.

As stalwart conservative blogger/activist Elizabeth Crum summed up Rachel’s plight: “What has happened to her can happen to anyone who publicly stands up and blogs with conservative principles.”

Make no mistake: This is just another nasty battle in the Left’s long war to marginalize, demonize, and criminalize conservative dissent. The selective protection of free speech is unconscionable. The freedom to blog is under assault on so many fronts. It has to stop.

The first step in fighting back: Sunlight. Lots of it.

Who Really Is The One Note Piano Player

Recently Bob Worsley put out up a YouTube video suggesting that Senator Russell Pearce was a one note musician with inference that Bob Worsley was a masterful musician who could bring all the notes together and make music we will all find appealing.

I've got to say pretty well done. So lets take a closer look at the masterful musician Bob Worsley and the music he is playing . Lets take a look at the truth of Bob's music notes. Musician Worsley says that he will he will play the notes of Economy, Family, Lower Taxes, Jobs, Cut Spending, Education

Bob Worsley on the Economy - Bob has to do a poll to telling him that people are concerned about their jobs but yet Bob laid off over 40% of workforce at the Showlow alternative fuels Bio-Mass Electrical Plant

Bob Worsley on Family -  Bob defend Phoenix New Time in sex crime against kids, yet touts his family values.

Bob Worsley on Lower Taxes - . Bob and wife Christe donate to Democrat Harry Reid, take tax dollars then file bankruptcy on Show Low Bio Mass plant. That's called sticking it to tax payers.

Bob Worsley on Jobs - . Claims he  has created over a thousand jobs, but where is the questions. His companies laid off 42% of employees at business in Show Low area. Now has a land and mineral holding company that doesn't employ anybody. At Skymall there wasn't a 1,000 employees, it was a catalog company that took orders.

Bob Worsley on Spending Cuts -  Supports those who will raise taxes, Raul Gravala, Harry Reid, Support Primary Property Tax on Mesa Residents.


Bob Worsley on Education - Associate with Saul Alinsky's IAF and the MEA.

Russell Pearce on the other hand is a proven Champion on all these issues and has a track record to prove it. So who is the masterful musician after all?

Action Russell Pearce vs Talking Bob Worsley

In the race for Arizona's Legislative District 25 you have two very different choices to choose from. Action Russell Pearce and Talking Silver Tongue Alternative Fuels Bob Worsley.

On the one hand you have Russell Pearce a man of action and services. A man who tells you what he is going to do and then does it. Promises Made Promises Kept. He took on immigration and he told us if the federal government wasn't going to do the job of protecting American worker and families he was, even if that meant taking the fight all the way to Washington DC. Guess what? Russell has done just that and now the immigration issue is before the Supreme Court of the land who will make the final ruling. Instead of me telling you what Russell has done I will let Russell tell you in his own words.

Now we get to Talking Silver Tongue Alternative Fuels Bob Worsley. Now this man may have good intentions and have his heart in the right place to be preach over a Spanish congregation but is he the man to lead us through the next few years. He says we need change but what kind of change. 3 years ago people voted for "Hope and Change" and look where that has gotten us. High unemployment, massive foreclosures, and an unstable economy. Bob Worsley was a part of that hope and change with his and his wife's donation to Harry Reid the Senate President in Washington DC.

He touts Skymall but Skymall was a failure before it was a success and almost cost Bob and others millions of dollars before it had a couple of successful year during which time Bob got out. Then there is the Bio-Mass plant in Snowflake which has never been successful and for which Bob and his wife got millions of dollars in tax credits, sound vaguely familiar to other "so call green companies" under the Obama administration.

Hey, but Bob's a nice guy and has created a 1,000 jobs, that is before he let people go. But for a man who wants to elevate Arizona and Mesa he sure isn't telling us how he is going to do it. Or maybe he does have a plan the Saul Alinsky's Industrial Areas Foundation plan or maybe the Randy Parraz's plan.

Bob Worsley Using Mormon Church To Get Elected, Shame One You!

Mesa Mormons At It Again!

The Beth Coon, Kirk Adams, Bod Worsley, Craig Ahlstrom, David Johsnon, Ross Farnsworth, Ken Smith,  are at it again using the Mormon Church to push there agenda. Seeing Red AZ

East Valley campaigns: Church, state and stakeMay 4, 2012Politics meets LDS Church organization

Disturbing information is making the rounds regarding a campaign event benefiting Congressional candidate Kirk Adams and Bob Worsley, another recruited opponent to challenge former AZ Senate President Russell Pearce.

This evening’s event is another to be hosted at the home of Adam Decker. Previously, the beneficiaries were Jeff Flake and Peter Principle prototype Kirk Adams. Those orchestrating the events are Jimmy Miller and Dave Johnson, campaign staffers for Jeff Flake, Kirk Adams, Jerry Lewis and Bob Worsley.

The problem arises with the unsavory manner in which participants are recruited for the candidate fun and games. Miller and Johnson are using the Young Single Adult TEXT phone numbers retrieved from the High Groves Ward/Citrus Heights Stake. The text reads: Politics by the Pool: Pie Face Edition! Come Eat Tasty Food, play games, swim, and “PIE A CANDIDATE”! 8 pm Friday @3440 E. Kael St. INVITE ALL!!!

These texts are being forwarded to YSA’s throughout the area, many who do not even attend that specific ward and stake.

This is not the first time the Young Single Adult Church LDS Text/Phone number list has been used for political campaigns. Several of the YSA  members have complained that their information, which is supposed to be confined to use for church activities has been misused in this manner. Additionally, only Mormons have been invited, although the candidates are supposed to serve all they represent.

As the young adult invitees walk in the door, most quite naive in the political process, they are recruited to sign their name to precinct committeeman forms, proxies, and candidate nominating petitions. Those who have not previously voted are registered on the spot and asked to endorse the candidates they are to meet.

Jerry Lewis, who was the recruited liberal stooge to run in a farce of a recall to remove Russell Pearce, acknowledged church involvement in his campaign last November. 

Bob talking about giving the church a bad name?

Who Is Senate Candidate Bob Worsley?

Have you heard the name Bob Worsley or Robert Worsley or Robert M. Worsley, Robert Merrill Worsley before his announcement to run against Senator Russell Pearce in the newly created legislative district 25 in Mesa Arizona. I hadn't so I thought I would do a little research of my own on him. There is a lot of information on Mr. Worsley if you know where to look.

First off, I have no reason to question Mr. Worsley devotion to his family, friends and religion but I do have reason to question everything else.

Mr. Worsley is best known for founding SkyMall, its is a very interesting story with a very shaky beginning. The company almost didn't make it and one of his first partner Allen Ashton after investing 25 million refused to give him any more money. The company was founded in 1989 and incorporated in Delaware, 1996 the company was reincorporated in Nevada. We can only guess why. At the end of 1996 the company offered an IPO and raise about 14 million. In 1998 Worsley acquire a controlling interest in the company when he purchased Karen and Allen Ashton and Bert A. Getz shares. Worsely left Skymall in 2003.

After Leaving SkyMall, and probably before that (2002), he purchase New Mexico and Arizona Land Company, LLC. The company was renamed NZ Legacy, LLC and has since created a joint venture called HNZ Holdings, LLC after bring on Hunt Oil out of Texas. Theses companies that hold mineral patents and water rights in several Western States.

Mr. Worsley has also tried his hand at renewable energy, creating a 24 megawatt biomass plant in the Snowflake area through a company called Rengy Inc., control by Mr. Worsley. From the outset this biomass plant had problems and eventually file for Chapter 11 in 2010 in an attempt to prevent SRP from cancelling contracts with them. This entire time it appears that Mr. Worsley has continued to hold an interest in this company and in 2009 received tax credits for investing in the company. (Sound kind of familiar SOLYNDRA). This entire thing is kind of shady when you begin to look into it. Someone should really dig into the ownership of all these companies.

As for Mr Worsley politics they seem to be along the lines of I will cross the party lines when it fits me. He has donated to the establishment, probably because of political favors for his companies, he seems for have donated from all of them. He has even donated to Democrat Harry Reid in Nevada. That one really make you wonder.

Stay tuned for more, this work is in process.

Tyler Montague Is At It Again Telling Half Truths!

Tyler Montague, the Mr. Know It All of Mesa Arizona politics is at it again telling half truth and lies much the same as he didn't in late 2011 during the recall election.

If you recall, during the election of Senator Russell Pearce and (Senator) Jerry Lewis-Parraz you will remember that he first denied the use of the Mormon church in the recall elections before he admitted to the use of the Mormon church in the recall election.

Mr. Montagues repentance for the use of the church reminds me a lot of what John Kerry said once, "I was for it, before I was against it."  It also reminds me of President Bill Clinton sitting in the Oval office saying "I didn't have sex with that woman" and we all know how that turned out.!

I guess from Mr. Montague's standpoint a lie is OK if it serves your end.

In his most recent post on Facebook, he talks about the supposed abuse of power by Andrew Thomas and Joe Arpaio and using deputies to intimidate people. If you like you can read the story for yourself here. As one person pointed out, the Arizona Republic's story didn't mention any thing about the use of deputies to intimidate. In response Mr. Montague summarizes in rumor fashion (which is a campaign trick) that he has some insider information but can't go in to details on it. (David Johnson, Beth Coons, Randy Parraz, Chad Snow, Michael Wright, Mary Rose Wilcox, Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny)

Mr. Montague insinuates (rumorizes) that he has personal knowledge of three individual, two of which are very public figures who when they made donations to the legal defense fund had deputies show up at their houses. Funny thing is the Legal Defense fund refused to disclose the donors. Lets guess who that defense fund was for, Don Stapley, who is now being investigated by the federal government for some of the very same things the County Attorney Andrew Thomas was investigating him for.

Mr. Montague for all your hard work at attempting to spin the spin I have to give you credit even if it is not completely accurate. It's like the spin on Jerry Lewis not knowing who Randy Parraz was during the recall election or the incidents at the school for the homeless kids and the stolen goods.

Senator Rich Crandall, Carpet Bagger from Mesa

Rich Crandall

  Carpet Bagger, refers to a politician who runs for public office in an area where he or she does not have deep community ties, or has lived for a short time.

As reported by azcentral, Rich Crandall with be running after all but not against Bob Worsley or Russell Pearce but in an entirely different district.He is picking up his family and moving from the gate community in which he lives at Brown and Greenfield roads to a place a little further east.

In his new district her will be representing east Mesa, Apache Junction and Gold Canyon. He will be running against John Fillmore. If Mr. Fillmore needs help with information on Rich all he will have to do is ask. I'm sure there will be plenty of people willing to help stop Rich dead in his tracks.

Rich is always at the bottom of the barrel for Republican Values and more times than not he vote for bigger government and less personal freedoms. As anybody that knows him and will say nice things to your face and then stab you in the back just to get ahead in the game.

Rich runs a food nutrition company that is owned on paper by his mother, but in reality is run by him. This is to avoid any appearance of conflict of interest on deal with matters concerning his votes on education. His vote consistently side with the public education system because of his ties and contracts with public schools.

Be very careful of this carpet bagger and snake oil salesman.

Kirk Adams & The Dirt, Can He Stay Clean?

The voter in Mesa just finished one of the dirties elections in Mesa's history between Jerry Lewis & Russell Pearce. It was dirtier than the election with Kevin Gibbons. Kevin Gibbons made the first allegations of spousal abuse, and the problems at MDV. That campaign was run by Nathan Sproul, a long time advocate and supporter of Kirk Adams, Jeff Flake and John McCain.

If you remember many of the people supplying Kevin Gibbons with information also worked for Jeff Flake and had close ties to John McCain. In fact it was Jeff Flakes right hand man Mike Haller, who spent his time at the court house looking up the case information on the wife beating charges, which later Russell's wife withdrawn and claimed never happened.

During that election; Kirk Adams, Beth Coons, Liana Clarkson, Don Stapley and those who supported Jerry Lewis in the recall election, also supported Kevin Gibbons. These people also help Randy Parraz, Chad Snow, Michael Wright and Citizen's for a Better Arizona in the recall election. They are also the same ones who used the Mormon leadership to start rumors in the LDS Community about Russell Pearce. Which Tyler Montague now admits they did.

During the recall election both Rich Crandall and Kirk Adams came out in support of Jerry Lewis. Kirk Adams went so far as to wright a letter to the paper and renounce the attacks on Jerry Lewis, while not standing up to the attacks against Russell Pearce, Matt Tolman, Chuck Coughlin, Olivia Cortez, Bruce Ross, and other Pearce supporters.

Many, if not all of the people who supported Jerry Lewis and Kevin Gibbons are also supporting Kirk Adams in his bid for Jeff Flake's seat against Matt Salmon.

Matt Salmon is currently up 30 points on Kirk Adams. That is a big lead for Kirk to overcome if he is going to run a nice clean election as he says he is going to do. The fact of the matter though is that negative attacks on your opponents do work and that is why you saw so many of then against Russell Pearce and so few against Jerry Lewis.

Kirk Adams has already done a negative push poll attempting to sway voters.

Kirk financial reports reveal that he has spent about $10,000 on opponent research. What that indicates is Kirk has probably hired a private investigator to see what they can dig up on Matt Salmon. My guess is that they will probably not find very much given the fact that Matt Salmon has already served once in the house and ran for governor, any dirty laundry Matt has, if any has already been aired.

Kirk on the other hand hasn't run for such a high profile office before and their are probably a few things he would not like to have revealed much like his lobbing efforts prior to running for office.

The question, is Kirk Adams going to stay out of the gutter and run a clean election as he called for during the recall or is he willing to allow his friends to run freely in the gutter? I think we will see the real Kirk Adams come out after the first of the year. Personally I hope it is for the better and not worst.

During the recall election here in Mesa, there was a lot of going back and fourth between the members of the LDS community, in so much that it was said you could feel the tension in the air during their meetings. One of the things that we heard a lot about was the involvement of the LDS church in this election. That intervention wasn't necessarily from Salt Lake City but from here on a local level.

It was rumored that Jerry Lewis and his close supporters had gone and talked with stake presidents and bishops about supporting Lewis. This was done in order to influence the members of their wards. Well the truth now comes out that, that is exactly what they did even though at the time Jerry Lewis completely denied it. What kind of Mormons are these people, that if one day they will lie about it and the next day they will admit to it? 


Now that it has been admitted to by Jerry Lewis and Tyler Montague what other lies have they told people? I guess we will just have to wait and see.
