I don't think I'll be voting for Tony Sanchez.

“Texas voters should be advised not to open the door for Sanchez campaign workers,” said Republican Party of Texas Chairman Susan Weddington. “They may be packing more than palm pilots and should be considered armed and dangerous. For safety’s sake, we urge all Texans to keep a watchful eye for suspicious Sanchez campaign workers and to lock their doors should any come knocking.”

VERY clever.

allegedly pulling a gun on a truck driver after an argument…People associated with the Sanchez campaign have also verbally abused and physically assaulted GOP volunteers… a Sanchez campaign staffer attempted to intimidate GOP protestors by shouting obscenities and making lewd gestures from his car…a volunteer GOP cameraman was physically assaulted by a Sanchez supporter. The assailant repeatedly struck the cameraman’s arms with closed fists in an attempt to knock the camera out of his hands.

Sounds like your typical union "political activists."

People associated with the Sanchez campaign have also verbally abused and physically assaulted GOP volunteers in recent weeks. At a Sanchez event in Austin on September 20, a Sanchez campaign staffer attempted to intimidate GOP protestors by shouting obscenities and making lewd gestures from his car.

Gosh, that happened to us everywhere we freeped Hillary in New York...

I did my duty. I turned a Conservative Democrat away from Ron Kirk with the race-baiting article about minorities fighting in Iraq. He's a CCWer, but he said Cornyn is a dork, and I couldn't argue with him there. So he promised to abstain from the Senate vote, which is onenet vote for the pubs!! As for governor, well, there's only that ding-dong aggie to vote for. I'll have to hold my nose and vote for a dork and an aggie. We do what we can.

Sanchez campaigner accused of pulling gun

By Michael Baker
The Facts

Published September 23, 2002WEST COLUMBIA — An 18-year-old Houston man who worked for Tony Sanchez’ gubernatorial campaign was arrested around 5 p.m. Sunday after allegedly pulling a gun on a West Columbia man.

Ian Davis, who told police he was a canvasser for the Sanchez campaign, was going door to door in the 300 block of 15th Street when he and the

42-year-old West Columbia man, who was driving a truck at the time, got into a verbal fight, said Patrolman Michael Palmer of the West Columbia Police Department.

“They were walking in the middle of the street, and he was trying to get by,” Palmer said. “The driver got out of the truck, and one of them pulled a black pistol out of his backpack.”

The West Columbia man went back to his house, which was a couple of streets away, and called police, Palmer said.

The other campaign worker stayed out of the altercation, Palmer said.

“He just stood there and watched,” Palmer said. “He did the right thing.”

Davis was held in West Columbia jail Sunday night. He faces charges of aggravated assault, and bond will be set today when he sees the judge, Palmer said.

When news reports revealed Davis had lost his job with Sanchez‚ campaign, Palmer said it was he that broke the news to him.

“I was the one who had to let him know,” Palmer said. “I told him he lost his job.”

The Republican Party of Texas issued a tongue-in-cheek AVB (All Voters Bulletin) today warning Texans not to open the door to Sanchez campaign workers, who should be considered armed and dangerous.

Tacky, Dem like tactic.
Incoming backlash.
