Hurt: Hurt Welcomes Perriello To One On One Debates
Robert Hurt, Republican candidate for Virginia’s Fifth Congressional District, today released the following statement:
“Over the course of the nine month Republican Primary my six primary opponents and I engaged in more than two dozen public debates and forums all across the Fifth District. These public debates and forums were instrumental in allowing the people of the Fifth District to get to know my vision for the future and this valuable discourse resulted in our decisive election with 50% of the vote in a crowded field of seven candidates.
Now that the field has been set, it is clear that the choice before the people of the Fifth District is whether they want two more years of Congressman Perriello and his job-killing policies or a new congressman who will listen to his constituents and fight for our people, our main street businesses and our farms that actually create jobs here in the Fifth District.
From the time of my nomination, I have invited Congressman Perriello to engage in as many one-on-one debates as possible so that the people of the Fifth District will be well informed as to our two competing visions for the future. Until now, Congressman Perriello has simply dodged one on one debates in an effort to distract the voters from the clear choice they have in this election.”
I welcome the news that Congressman Perriello is now willing to stop the distracting political gamesmanship and directly face the people of the Fifth District in a one-on-one format where the Congressman can defend his support of his job-killing agenda and his record of putting the needs of Nancy Pelosi ahead of the needs of the fine people he represents.”
Re: Hurt
I would not support this forked tongue “To The Manor Born” elitist for dog catcher. He seems to think we owe the old Tuck Democrat Remnants their entitled seat in Congress as a perpetual perk.
I was with a business group in Myrtle Beach recently. Some members had “worked with” Hurt and the unanimous statement was that he was an absolute elitist focused on himself.
Nuff said.
I’d like to know how they “worked with” him when the only thing he ever did was work as a lawyer and as a Senator or Delegate.
so being a lawyer is not hard work?
@Conservative Scientist- Robert Hurt worked his entire professional life as part of the legal community in Danville/Chatham, VA. Unless they’re former attorneys or paralegals from Southside VA, they’re full of it, much like yourself.
Thats what I was trying to say. You said it so much better MM
