Thank you.
It’s your opinion?
Forgive me, but your opinion doesn’t square with the facts.
Most of the Bushbots have moved their residency to another forum.
While a few of them support Fred, most of them support Rudi.
That is why most of them are gone...they tried to spread disinformation about Reagan and were called on it.
Much like the disinformation you’re spreading about Fred supporters.
Here's a Roy Tyler e-mail reply.
If it is the article from the young reporter at TCU, It was a total miss quote. I did not say that at all. I said getting the main stream media to cover DH or any lower tier candidate would be like pushing string through a maze. He also asked how I thought our chance of winning were and what we were planning to do to win, I told him we were a long shot but we would catch a break if we just keep working hard
Sometimes it is better to let something like this die, rather than give it fuel. Not many have seen it or if they did they did not pay attention to it. You are the first person outside one of our own campaign staff to mention it.
Roy Tyler
Communications Director
Duncan Hunter for President
And there you have it.
Ping to post 343 on why Roy Tyler was misquoted.
Darn it, you ruined another good conspiracy. Guess they’ll have to stick with “he’s running to get money for Jr.”. It’s so obvious, and that’s why his wife is never around too. /s
Thanks.... as I said up thread it maybe out of context and apparently it was. It didn’t make sense for a communications director to say something like that about his candidate to the press, even to a college paper reporter. Tyler is correct to let it lie/die if’n it doesn’t begin to spread.
Roy Tyler, campaign director of communication for Duncan Hunter, said the chances of Hunter winning the candidacy were about as good "as pushing a string through a maze.
Unfortunately, there is no support here for Tyler's email response:

Unless Tyler taped the interview, which I must say would have been wise, the reporter will need to produce his notes/tape.
Despite the tough road ahead, Tyler said, the campaign would continue and hopefully start gaining speed.
Not really. Hunter’s campaign should get the reporter to confirm Tyler’s account.
Don’t bother. Let them think whatever they want.
Excellent digging.
>Unless Tyler taped the interview, which I must say would have been wise, the reporter will need to produce his notes/tape.<
For whom will he need to do that?
What did I say?
“That there is as ironic a statement as I’ve seen on this Forum.”
What did I say?

“Pretty ironic coming from a Hunter supporter. About 85% of Hunterite posts are direct trashing of Fred Thompson.”
But when hunter supporters trash Thompson, they’re not trashing the “most qualified person” so it’s not quite so ironic.
