Steve Stockman Claims He's A "Victim" After His Mugshot Appears In Campaign Ads
Burnt Orange Report ^ | 3/3/14 | Joe Deshotel

Posted on 03/04/2014 10:05:46 AM PST by Oliviaforever

The Steve Stockman campaign has launched an all out blitz to vindicate his "clean record" and claimed that Michigan officials believe he is a "victim of illegal activity." On Monday, they released a statement condemning the anti-Stockman effort "Shady Stockman" by a super PAC called Texans for Conservative Majority as "a smear campaign [that] made false claims using illegally-published records."

He did it 1977? Is that what I read? I’m not really much concerned with what someone did in 1977, and Texans shouldn’t be either. I was pooping in my diapers in 1977.

The nastiest TV campaign ads on TV are those from Cornyn and Dewhurst, the GOPe candidates. Wonder if the Chamber of Amnesty is proud of their contributions to these sleazy candidates?

Looks like the last minute tactics that Boxer and Pelosi used in Kalifornia. The key is too run the story so late that they do not have time to respond adequately before the election. That should be highly illegal and should be a crime.

EVERY website I go to has the sidebar ads with that mugshot. It’s to the point that it’s ridiculous (on this groups part) and reeks of desperation.

What’s the election turnout look like? The nasty weather may impact it somewhat.

Stovall lives about 30 miles east of me - he is a conservative for sure and I voted for him.

How’s the polling going for Matt Beebe there in SA in his race against Joe Straus, heard anything? That would be such an important win.

With computerized government records none are expunged nor sealed. Obama proved that and the state of Connecticut is about to prove it with the use of supposedly expunged background checks.

thamks
I understand why an incumbent would not endorse anyone in a primary. You will have to work with whomever does end up getting elected
That is why I was surprised to see someone post that Cruz had endorsed someone.
Too bad Stovall couldn’t get any organization going up here.
Hopefully he will stay in polics though

Why pull your head out of sand? That’s the funny thing about Freedom, you are 100% free to vote for even the worst candidates.
Strawman Stockman will be pooping in anyone diapers who voted for him in the Primary when he throws the fight in a runoff.

Look, serious honorable candidates do not act the way Stockman has acted during his “campaign” (and I use “campaign” very loosely). Something with him has a very fishy smell. I think he’s either a Strawman for Cornyn to muddy the Primary water or has some mental issues.

Haven’t seen any polls. Didn’t Bebee and Straus knock heads in 2012?

Me thinks I’d want to be on my toes rather than buzzin with “anything goes” valium. Waking up in the cell with Leroy would not be a good way to sit out a traffic fine.

Hey.... what if Stockman forces Cornyn into a runoff and then quits the race? Would the next-highest vote-getter then face Cornyn, or what?

I believe this was written by his son, by the same name.
Probably found a job in Austin due to his daddy’s name.
But I could be wrong
