NY-26 Update: Fake ‘Tea Party’ Candidate Davis Skips Debate, Attacks Cameraman

Posted on | May 12, 2011 | 7 Comments

This video of Crazy Jack Davis is making the rounds today:

For reasons unknown, Crazy Jack pulled out of today’s debate in Rochester with Republican Jane Corwin and Democrat Kathy Hochul. The cameraman, a GOP volunteer, was trying to ask Davis why he canceled his debate appearance less than two weeks before the May 24 special election in New York’s 26th congressional district.

(Hat-tip: Omega6 on Twitter.)

UPDATE: Moe Lane at Red State: “I believe that we have finally established, once and for all, that this guy is a Democrat.” (Hat-tip: The Right Scoop.)

Professor William Jacobson: “The Davis campaign . . . are claiming Davis was harassed and provoked.”

UPDATE II: The National Republican Congressional Committee’s new TV ad points highlights Davis’s track record as a Democrat:

Via Jim Geraghty at National Review. NRCC press release headline:

Hochul & Davis Agree: Pelosi Has “Done a Great Job!”

Yeah, that’s gonna leave a mark.

UPDATE III: Davis campaign claims they’re victims of a “set-up.”

Now a Memeorandum thread.
