Comments on: CA-42: I’m Ron Shepston and I’m running for Congress http://www.theliberaloc.com/2007/07/18/ca-42-im-ron-shepston-and-im-running-for-congress/ Challenging Orange County's right-wing noise machine Sun, 21 Mar 2010 05:38:48 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Voice of Truth http://www.theliberaloc.com/2007/07/18/ca-42-im-ron-shepston-and-im-running-for-congress/comment-page-1/#comment-11082 Voice of Truth Mon, 17 Sep 2007 20:14:51 +0000 http://www.theliberaloc.com/2007/07/18/ca-42-im-ron-shepston-and-im-running-for-congress/#comment-11082 I've seen a lot of defamation on this site, mostly coming from Andrew Davies (both as himself and pretending to be someone else). The Hull-Richters are irrelevant to this thread as Mark is not running for Congress in 2008. He only did so in 2006 because nobody else ran for the Democrats in the 42nd. He was a great candidate, but he isn't interested. If you want to run an above-board campaign, stop using your platform to defame hard-working Democrats who do a great deal for the community. I'm tired of the dirty way Andrew and others are conducting their political smear campaigns in Orange County. It is time to get off your heads out of the sewer. If anyone here supports Sheptson for Congress, don't use his campaign to attack the activist community. Instead, seek the endorsement of the Hull-Richters and others who are actually out there doing good work, rather than hanging out on this thread of defamation. I suspect that the first thing Sheptson will have to do to get the support of activists is to disown this thread.

I was trying to be vague but since you want to basically trash someone who was simply asking a serious question I guess I will have to spell it out. There was a rumor that the DCCC was trying to stop LA County Judge Ed Chau (edchau.com)from running against Rep. Napolitano by recruiting him into 42. He has since filed with the FEC and put up a website, but I guess I am just starting rumors right Gary. When nothing was posted about Ron after Ed officially entered I wondered if the rumor was true and posted the question. But I guess just insulting someone is easier than trying to ease the genuine concerns of someone following this race. Gary,

Thought with no news that maybe the DCCC was trying to push Ron out. Good to hear he is still in. Heard a rumor there was another person getting in, (not the Hull-richters).

I've been VERY busy lately, so I haven't had much time to work on a CA-42 roundup. But I guess when the time comes, I'll do an extra special CA-42 roundup for this week! Oh yes, and if you're one of those folks that wants Ron to drop out to "make way for the Hull-Richters", forget it. Tata! ;-) Say it ain’t so-
