"I am Scumbagus!"
"No, I am Scumbagus!".

Their frustration is starting to show. Bauer failed in his first smear attempt with Folks, and now is stooping even further into the mud in his desperate attempt to try and force a run-off.
This is as dirty as it gets, kiddos......
Its time for Haley to sue the jerk. Even though she’s a public figure, this is the type of suit she could still win.
The commie ‘RATS appear to be trying to Palinize Haley. These types are real scum.
I can’t imagine why there is no a lawsuit coming from Haley, if for not other reason then to shut this guy up ... or make him produce some proof.
Bauer started the rumor that Gresham Barrett was having an affair with a staffer when it looked like Barrett was the man to beat (he spread this rumor via Will Folks).
When Haley catapulted into the lead after the Palin endorsement, all of the sudden there's Will Folks again “admitting” to an affair some years ago with Nikki Haley. Barrett (via a member of his campaign) “confirmed” the smear by saying that Nikki Haley just happened to tell him the super-secret details of their sordid affairs (which nobody would have “known about” if she hadn't “confessed” -makes sense, right? LOL)
Now, after failing to take-out Haley, Bauer has resorted to using another proxy - a direct member of his campaign - to all of the sudden feel the desperate need to “confess” a years-old one-night stand with Haley (who we're now to believe is an indiscriminate, insatiable, adulteress whore), right before the primary. Bauer himself somehow feels compelled to bring this up at a sudden news conference.
Bauer has long since accepted he won't win the primary, and has been pretty open with the press about his desire to prevent anyone from winning a majority because he thinks that if he can force a run-off and bide his time, he will win with a plurality and get the nomination.
He has begun and ended his campaign in the gutter.
Barrett was ALREADY dead in the water — NOW, thank God, we can FINALLY expose Bauer for the trash he is. WHAT a disgusting ploy! GOOD LORD! HOW STUPID DO THESE PEOPLE THINK WE ARE?!
NO EVIDENCE!? NOTHING?! JUST YOUR WORD AGAINT HERS!? AFTER THE FOLKS DEBACLE?!
BAUER, BARRETT, don’t go away mad — JUST GO AWAY! PLEASE!
One of the Honor Harrington series, "War of Honor". The 'rats, called the Liberals, attack Honor and Hamish Alexander. Both are (space) Naval officers of no small reputation, but both are also members of the House of Lords. Just to complicate matters, honor is also a Steadholder on another, allied, planet, where they are more conservative in such matters. (Hamish is married, Honor is not). The thing is, they'd both have liked the stories to be true, but they weren't.
Later they were, after Hamish wife gives her blessing (she's in a life support chair) and when Honor turns up PG.. well you'll have to read the story.
Of course I doubt the governor has killed two men in individual duels, or has "armsmen" that would love to do the deed for her, just to save her the bother. :)
yes maybe he will talk about the evils of women and how they are not to be trusted.
seems about what most of his posts end up saying
"I am Scumbagus!"
"No, I am Scumbagus!".
Yes, I agree. The second attempt makes it clear this is a smear job, plain and simple.
this has moved beyond politics into no hold barred sexism. the GOP must denounce this and all connected with this sexist attack. No women in public office needs to be subjected to this slime.
“I can’t imagine why there is no a lawsuit coming from Haley..”
Because the primary is next week and Haley can pursue the lawsuit after that. Better she concentrate on the more important matter of the election. The good ‘ol boys are playing with fire and going down.
Her lawyers could present a lawsuit now and publicize it, wouldn’t hurt her cause.
.
To both of these low lifes, didn't they have a responsibility to go to Haley first before going public? Neither one of them did, which indicates to me that they are lying about having an affair with her.
That bugs me. What employer is going to open himself up for a lawsuit by trash-talking somebody on the way out the door? Serial killers get the boot with a pert "No comment."
Plese...it's FR etiquette to ping someone when you're talking about them. It's like talking about someone behind his back when you don't....
Filing a defamation lawsuit is a complex matter. Better to have the lawyers watching her actions and statements to be certain she doesn’t violate some obscure campaign law that her opponents can use against her.
The defamation lawsuit can be done later, after the election.
