“A June 23, 1999, affidavit from then Assistant District Attorney Gerald W. Wilson, 24th Prosecutorial District [Watauga County], states that there was no evidence that Newton [A.B. Swindell’s Republican challenger] was involved in the possession, use or sale of drugs.” Rocky Mount Telegram, September 23, 2010

Post: September 23, 2010, by John Davis

In 2008, I knew that US Sen. Elizabeth Dole, R-NC, was losing her race for another term when she ran the now infamous “Godless” ad against her Democratic opponent Kay Hagan, tying her to a group called the Godless Americans PAC.  The ad included a female voice saying, “There is no God.”  Hagan is a life-long Presbyterian; a former Sunday school teacher.

Desperation is the mark of a loser.

In 2008, I knew that state Treasurer Richard Moore, D-Vance, was losing his race with Beverly Perdue for the Democratic nomination for governor when he ran ads suggesting that Perdue was soft on the KKK.

Desperation is the mark of a loser.

Today’s Rocky Mount Telegram carries a story by Geoffrey Cooper about a political attack flyer mailed last week by A.B. Swindell, D-Nash, featuring a picture of cocaine and a record of felony drug charges against Buck Newton, his GOP opponent, that the Watauga County DA’s office says were a matter of mistaken identity.  There was never an arrest.

Desperation is the mark of a loser.

According to the Rocky Mount Telegram story, the flyer “depicts a police officer and several marked vehicles with flashing lights. The brochure also includes images of lines of cocaine on a mirror and scanned public records that show Newton’s full name and suggest that he was arrested and charged with eight felony drug counts.”

“A June 23, 1999, affidavit from then Assistant District Attorney Gerald W. Wilson, 24th Prosecutorial District, states that there was no evidence that Newton was involved in the possession, use or sale of drugs. The drug charges originally were brought against Newton as a result of an undercover operation carried out by Boone police officers.”

The affidavit also states that the “undercover police officer [who was responsible for the mistaken identity] was relieved of his duties shortly after the events.”

Swindell told the Rocky Mount Telegram “that he will continue to back the public records that have been presented in his campaign brochures.”

Perhaps Sen. Swindell needs to back the public affidavit dated June 23, 1999, from then Assistant District Attorney Gerald W. Wilson, 24th Prosecutorial District, that state “that there was no evidence that Newton was involved in the possession, use or sale of drugs.”

Desperation is the mark of a loser.

Today’s Investors Political Daily Senate Scoreboard has been changed.  Sen. A.B. Swindell, D-Nash is no longer “Favored” to win.  The “Favored” status has been shifted to his opponent Buck Newton.  Republicans now have 27 races where they are likely to prevail … and they only need 26 for a majority in the 50-member NC Senate.  Add them:  “Winners” (11 Republicans face no opposition), “Likely Winners” (9 safe Republican districts), or “Favored” to win (7 Republicans have the political advantage and would win if the election were held today.)  That’s 27 races where Republicans are likely to prevail.

I have also taken A.B. Swindell off the list of “Top 10 Opportunity Races” for free-market advocates, and replaced him on that list with Buck Newton.  Newton has a legal practice in Wilson and is Chairman of the Wilson County Republican Party.  If you would like to help Newton, go to his website and click on the “Donate” button: http://www.buckforsenate.com/

Remember, all of the “Top 10 Opportunity” candidates have hotlinks to their websites on the Investors Political Daily Scoreboard. If you will let your cursor hover over the names of the candidates who are underlined in the Senate and House Investors Political Daily charts, you will see that they are now hotlinked to campaign websites.  This is to facilitate your ability to help the candidates of your choosing in the races still in play in the battle for majority in the state Senate and House.

Well, there you have it.  September 23, 2010.  According to Investors Political Daily, the GOP is well positioned to win the majority in both the NC Senate and House in November.
