Dear Chris Lee Campaign:

Everyone knows you’ve got people tracking Kryzan, videotaping her every move and word. Hopefully Kryzan’s doing the same, except that no one seems to be able to get a hold of where Lee’s going to be.

But when asked, at least be honest about it, rather than coming up with some kind of bullshit “we’re students doing research” line.

It’s happened twice in two days. While claiming to be from UB, doing a “research” project, Chris Lee operatives have been seen in the crowd during two seperate Kryzan events.This picture was taken today at a press conference while interviewing Chairman Len Lenihan

As we were leaving the event, a different Lee supporter pulled out of the parking lot in his Jaguar with Mike Ranzenhofer and Chris Lee bumper stickers plastered to the back of the car. He drove away before we could turn the camera back on.

Jaguar? Really?

Love, BP

    If I could afford a Jaguar, I’d buy one.

    That’s the guy that was at the health care forum at UB the other night…he did seem overly nervous about his “political science 101″ project. They need to hire a better actor.

    Is being a scumbag mandatory for repubs?

    I have no problem with taping a campaign event….after all, if it wasn’t for that, we’d have Senator George “Macaca” Allen from Virginia and a GOP-controlled Senate.

    But they could show some balls and at least own up to what they’re doing.

    I have no problem with taping campaign events, either. Without it, we wouldn’t have this gem from 2000.

    This campaign is extremely annoying. Their ads with the buzzword ” LIBERAL TRIAL LAWYER” are so condescending and Rovean in their little sound bytes of name calling, it’s clear they have nothing to say on their own behalf. They keep trying to plant that seed in the low-info brainstemmers who will zombie their way to the voting booth repeating it like Homer Simpson.

    So I guess what you are saying is “Stay off our turf!!!”. It is supposed to be only WNYMedia.net that has sole exclusivity to filming campaign events.

    I would think any smart campaign would tape not only their opponents’ events, but their own, as well. How else would one get unfiltered, unbiased, raw footage to use for campaign strategy planning? And how else would one defend their own comments, should they be used out of context.

    I’m sure you can go down through pages of archives in this blog to find gaffes, mis-statements, out-of-context clips and blatant lies by a number of candidates. I think any campaign who doesn’t do this is headed to FAIL.
