Apparently the Perriello campaign caught up to Virgil on the road Saturday Oct. 18, and questioned him directly about the cancelled debate.
Goode, in his "infinite wisdom" continued to deny it had ever been scheduled.
Well, that denial goes against all the known facts. Not really a surprise where Virgil Goode is concerned, he seems to live in a perpetual state of denial.
Some folks here in the 5th CD will tell you "I've known Virgil all my life, so I'm voting for him".
Well, I know Virgil too, and he will never get my vote when we have a candidate like Tom Perriello!
He makes sure he does it himself...
If there is a conflict with a tv scheduling it will fall on him.
So if Tucker Watkins did this, he did not tell Virgil about it possibly or just put it on the schedule and the fundraiser was also scheduled.
I sure didn't know that one was scheduled?
I know for a fact he has his own calendar for tv appearances and one for other appearances.. If it was not on his calendar it was not there.
Once he found out that it was happening and that the TV station had already set aside the airtime and had already been advertising for it and taking questions from their viewers, don't you think he should have gone ahead and done it?
Do you think it's right that he chose to attend a fundraiser over making his case to his constituents in a time of economic crisis? Is that the kind of leadership you expect from a congressman?
