Birther Candidate Faked Our Endorsement, Scott Brown Camp Says
Edited on Sat Sep-04-10 06:04 PM by Ian David
This is just crazy. Newly-minted Senator Scott Brown is catching a bunch of heat for supposedly endorsing a whacky Republican birther candidate for Congress who compared Obama to Osama Bin Laden.

Now, though, the Brown camp is claiming that the GOP birther candidate may have faked Brown’s endorsement. A Brown spokesman tells me the birther sent out a release trumpeting Brown’s endorsement that hadn’t even been approved by Brown and even featured a phony quote from Brown himself!

The candidate in question is Republican Bill Hudak, from Boxford, Massachusetts, who’s runing against Dem Rep John Tierney. Hudak has some pretty zany views, decorating his property with a sign depicting him dressed as Osama Bin Laden and insisting he was born in Kenya and retains ties to unnamed extremists.

Yesterday, Hudak sent out a press release, which is still on his Web site, announcing Brown’s endorsement. The release even quoted Brown: “Bill is not beholden to special interests and will help me bring the voice of the people Washington.”

But Brown spokesman Felix Browne emails that the whole thing is phony:

Note: Hudak has now removed the "endorsement" from his site.

The Hudak for Congress campaign has retained Swiftcurrent Strategies for strategic consultation and to handle the campaign’s Internet, New Media and get-out-the-vote efforts. The principals of Swiftcurrent Strategies developed and implemented the widely acclaimed Internet communications strategy for the recent Scott Brown for U.S. Senate Campaign.
