Thanks for the post and ping.What a whiner Frost is!
Bitter House race boils over (TX)
Excerpt:
The post-redistricting showdown between Republican U.S. Rep. Pete Sessions and Democratic U.S. Rep. Martin Frost collapsed into a fit of name-calling and vitriol Tuesday, with Sessions' campaign labeled "immature" and Frost's tagged as "bizarre."
What started as a snarky disagreement over campaign yard signs erupted into accusations of political dirty tricks and attempted intimidation, then erupted again when Frost's campaign revealed a 2-year-old police report indicating that Sessions had pulled up an opponent's yard signs during his last campaign.
With that, the gloves were off in this high-stakes, high-dollar Dallas-area race.
"Pete Sessions is not up to the maturity level that a congressman should be up to," Frost campaign spokesman Justin Kitsch said. "He was willing to do this against an underfunded opponent last election cycle, and it shows he will stoop to even lower, sillier and more immature pranks this cycle."
Sessions was merely removing signs placed illegally along a roadside and was not ticketed, cited or even investigated by Dallas police in 2002, said Chris Homan, Sessions' campaign manager.
Homan instead accused Frost of trying to direct attention away from what he called a dirty trick gone bad -- also involving yard signs.
"He is almost sociopathic at this point in how he is trying to cover his tracks," Homan said.
