It intriques me how you “weren’t involved” in either campaign yet you seem to know all of the “facts” surrounding both Chip and Craig’s campaigns.

I was Chip’s campaign manager, yes…the kid who was charged with theft, destruction, and more. You don’t know the half of the story, and you claim that you don’t know it, yet you come on this board and slander Sen. Rogers. Our signs were disappearing, and on several occassions cut to pieces. In the days leading up to the primary this was happening at an alarming rate. In frustration, Chip made a comment to me which I, because of MY immaturity repeated to those around me at the time. Within minutes….literally minutes both Chip and his wife Amy were at the campaign HQ rebutting what I said. Unfortunately all of our employees weren’t there, and again, because of MY immaturity I didn’t think to call those who had already left. With 40 employees going at the speed of light the day before the primary…I’ll be honest, I was overwhelmed, but it was my responsibility. This issue has long been resolved by the parties involved.

I must admit, I found your post quite confusing, as you first stated you weren’t involved in either campaign, yet you go on to say you know with “100% certainty” exactly what happened. Your disdain for Rogers confirms the fact that you’ve probably never discussed it with him, so an accurate appraisal of the situation on your end is highly unlikely.

You also claim that our campaign “broke every rule in the book” by putting signs on private property, and even in front of houses for sale. This is simply untrue. As is the Marr statement made earlier in your post, but it seems obvious to me, and I’m sure the other readers, that you have an axe to grind with the Metro area’s most popular citizen-legislator, regardless of whether or not you have to go back 4 years (and several untruths) to do it.
