Hammer’s Primary Endorsements

From John Hammer at The Rhino Times:

In Guilford County, being endorsed by the Tea Party is the kiss of death, but that isn’t true statewide. Brannon is the candidate that I believe the Democrats would love to have win the Republican nomination, because even in the primary he has so much baggage that negative ads against him are a piece of cake. It’s telling that Hagan is already running ads against Tillis, but not against Brannon…

Walker has the support of Conservatives for Guilford County (C4gc), the local Tea Party group, which means he toes the C4gc party line. He has raised over $200,000, much of it in small donations, which is an amazing feat…

State Sen. Trudy Wade said she was trying to stay out of limelight in this campaign, but when Walker insisted on having his photo taken with her at her veterinary clinic in Jamestown and immediately tweeted the photo out to the world, she felt obligated to make a public endorsement of Berger. But Wade wasn’t happy about being backed in a corner.

I thought what I was hearing was just standard campaign complaints, then it happened to me and I realized why everyone else was so upset about Walker’s endorsements. Wednesday, April 30, the Walker campaign sent out a piece stating that “William Hammer Co-Founder The Rhino Times” endorsed Walker.

My brother, William Hammer, is not the co-founder of the Rhino Times. He has absolutely nothing to do with the Rhino Times. Roy Carroll is the sole founder and owner of the Rhino Times. William Hammer was the long-time publisher of The Rhinoceros Times, which has now been out of business for a year. William left The Rhinoceros Times two years before that, in March 2011.

The piece is false and gives a very false impression of the position of the Rhino Times in this election. I don’t like the implication anymore than anyone else.

So much for exuding decency.
