QOTD: Awkward Chickens Roost for Oliver and LD-25 Candidate George Stafford

by: KendalJames

Mon Aug 08, 2011 at 02:00:00 PM EDT



Monday's Quote of the Day comes from LD-25 Assembly candidate George Stafford. George, you see, is in a bit of a pickle. On the one hand, he doesn't want to be associated with the likes of Sheila Oliver, whom he considers a misguided turncoat. On the other hand,  George is trying to win a seat in the Assembly and can't avoid good campaign opportunities just because Oliver will be there, too. Over at PolitickerNJ, they have reported it thusly:

"Now as an underdog State Assembly candidate these are the very folks I need to work and vote for me in the coming election," (Stafford) said in his email. "How can I ask for their support if I am seen to embrace the frankly cold, calculating, amoral practices of the likes of Ms. Oliver? On the other hand how do I avoid contamination if I attend the fund raiser? If I do not attend how best to explain my absence to my fellow Democrats? If I attend do I confront Ms. Oliver with her treachery? After all, I'm an old school Irish gentleman, chastising distinguished ladies in public is simply not in my nature." Stafford said if Sweeney were present he would get the senate president in a corner and challenge him."

Damn, dude. You go.

Stafford/ Oliver quandary (0.00 / 0)
If Stafford is for real he should boldly attend the fund-raisers and make it perfectly clear where he stands in relation to Ms. Oliver and her "Christie- crat" brothers....Go for it George..

double damn, dude. You go.
