I gave him a pass on the earlier claims, and was willing to overlook his somewhat unprepared responses...indeed, I learned long ago that the MOST HONEST person is the one who, in response to a question, tells you "I DON'T KNOW..but I'll find out and get back to you very soon..but there seems to be a fair bit of evidence to give some credence to the latest claim, like all the texts, many in the wee hours of the morning.. and the fact that when she texted him, he called right back...well..sorry, but that makes no sense unless there IS an existing relationship.
Candidates are SO busy, so tightly scheduled..and their private cell # is so closely guarded ..otherwise they' dget thousands of calls, texts, tweets every day..and they'd do nothing except look at their cellphone every time it rang or vibrated.
I hope that he can explain/justify this..but right now, it's incumbent on HIM to do so, to my satisfaction..a mere denial just won't cut it..
7:20 PM is the "wee hours"?
