Rob Jessmer, campaign manager for Junior Senator John Cornyn, said the thousand of people attending Netroots Nation were here for one reason...
They are here for one reason -- to rally around the Noriega campaign as we approach the final three months of the campaign.
Seems like a striking statement since we ran into Cornyn's senior strategist David Beckwith (aka Buck Smith). Beckwith registered for the event, and we have video uploading of him enjoying some panels in the exhibit all.
I wonder if Beckwith agrees with Jessmer when he says, "It is ironic they chose to come to Texas because I am sure the Netroots participants will look around and ask-did we get lost on the way to Berkeley?"
One thing that was funny was that Beckwith poked his head in to the Lone Star Candidates forum this morning at 9 a.m. and he failed to follow the rules by wearing his credentials. Is Beckwith hiding? Is he ashamed of who he is or what he is doing? Does he think Austin is like Berkeley or does he support Rick Noriega like Jessmer implies. I doubt it.
It would be naive to think that Beckwith has switched sides. So that leaves one option, Beckwith is here spying and since John Cornyn approves of everything Beckwith does, that means Cornyn wants him here.
It is time to get rid of Junior John and elect Lt. Col. Rick Noriega! |
