Roy Blunt and his non-denial denial
I saw this first linked over at Tony's Kansas City Blog and then went to the original news site--KSHB--to see the video and get this link, above.
It seems like Roy Blunt's actions are, in fact, being badly reported. One said he "stormed out" and if you see the video, that seems a bit harsh, if not out-and-out untrue.
But here's the flip side: To Michael Mahoney's question of whether Mr. Blunt knew this Hispanic woman who worked for the family--a yes or no question--he says it's "desperation politics" and that his campaign "put out a statement at the time and it was accurate at the time..." and he and the statement trail off.
Wow. Really, how much more a "non-denial denial" can you get? He didn't say "No, Mike, I didn't know her", he just goes off in a completely different direction and doesn't answer the easy, up or down question.
The fact is, Roy, we think you're clearly hiding something here.
Between this "NDD" and the woman's statement that she did work for the family, it doesn't look good.
Come on, people, vote this clown out of office. Don't make Roy Blunt our next, new Senator from Missouri. He's as dirty as a politician can be and still be in office.
For the love of pete and all that is good, don't vote for Roy Blunt.
In the meantime, thank God for video cameras on the campaign trail.
