Ping.
Thanks for the ping, Anti-Bubba182. Wondering where, when and how this will end. If Gilchrist is out, what do you think will happen next?
All of the grassroots border groups have a lot of infighting. Why that is I don't know.

That could well be, though Gilchrist and Simcox's groups are the ones that actually raised the most money. Many border groups don't have a lot of money.
What part if any is Allen Keyes responsible for in this mess?
None that I know of.
yet.
The level of funds potential for Gilchrist's group may not have reached the Keyes organization spontaneous combustion threshold as quickly as Simcox's did.
Is Jerome Corsi standing with Gilchrist?
That's hilarious Bob.

Last September, Simcox told The Arizona Republic that he already had started the process of filing for non-profit status, but his spokeswoman said this week that they plan to meet all the filing requirements later this month, adding that delays with the complex paperwork has slowed the process.
In the meantime, Simcox formed a partnership with the non-profit, Herndon, Va.-based Declaration Alliance, headed by conservative Alan Keyes.
Leaders also contracted with Diener & Associates, a consulting firm, to help take the movement to a national level, Hair said, using connections for mass mailings and fund-raising campaigns. MCDC leaders could not say how much Diener, which also has ties to the Declaration Alliance, has made off the partnership. Keyes and the Declaration Alliance have not benefited financially from the partnership, Simcox said.
Meanwhile, Gilchrist, whose recent failed bid for Congress in California was run by Diener, is questioning Simcox's use of the company, saying it was not forthcoming with financial records. Beyond that, he declined to comment except to say, "I fired them the day after my campaign was over."
Diener officials referred comment to Hair, saying she also works with them.
The Arizona Republic
Nah, there's no connection to Keyes in any of this. /sarcasm
Same old same old!
