Dirty politics

If any of you candidates out there are looking for tips on how to campaign, here's something you should definitely avoid:

A mayoral candidate in Winter Park, Fla., accused of smearing dog feces on another man during an apparent outburst of anger is fighting back after anonymous fliers about the incident have circulated around the city.

Probably won't be any of that in the primary campaigns, but there certainly will be a lot of feces from another certain animal, if you get my drift.

Isn't this just a slightly different execution of what politicians nearly always do these days? He's just waging his own smear campaign in a more literal, probably less hurtful, way.

there must a shortage of mud in Fl. I always thought it was mud they were supposed to be slinging. This brings a whole new meaning to " Dirty Politics!!"

I just feel sorry for the dog being degraded and used for politcal gain...

ROACH FOR SHERIFF
Thu, 03/09/2006 - 3:08pm

So why does the fort wayne newspapers, especially the JG have it in for Roach?
even the democrats, the party of tolerance, and such, hate me..(hate?)
I am blocked from their web site- http://www.allencountydemocrats.org
as a candidate.
The chairman "certified" a republican to run for sheriff against me, and my other opponent, Mr. Buffalo soldier is a zamora put-up job...? so the FWPD isnt dissolved in the upcoming indy-style merger, and the fwpd command staff put out of work, to all be "rent-a cops" at the 7-11.

furthermore, they found someone to depose me as a precinctcommitteeman....
and Mr. Knuth, wont certify ME as a Democrat, despite voting in several democratic primaries, and running in several more...
I could have been a contender, but I made my point...

but as the cubs always say- just wait till next year...

so votw for Roach- if nothing else to assert citizen control over the ACPD...

Its not like i'm a bad person or anything..

what are they afraid of? the gop wont take me, the democrats are afraid i'll take over?
