This is a stunt that really makes me believe that Vernon Robinson is really in this race only for his own notoriety.
I have commented before that he is offensive in nature and presentation, but this is just a S-T-U-N-T. This was simply a publicity stunt to get press coverage.
Well, I for one read this story and lost a lot of respect for Vernon. I do admit that I really admire his conservative stances at times, but find him very brash and harsh.
I think that this was a very risky maneuver that shows that he is really only out for himself and to gain fame, or in this case, INFAMY.

Although he admitted that he has had the idea since October, he said he couldn't find out what the procedure was because of "timing," declining to explain further. I find this statement to be disingenuous. He's on the city council. If he doesn't know what the procedure is (and he should, given he's a council member), he can ask someone (city attorney, parliamentarian, etc.)

He did not need to do this to get elected. This is going to hurt his chances in the end.

Ah! Posts from Winston's own liberal rag.
Guess we can believe anything in the W-S journal, even if the journal calls someone a "Jesse Helms".
