Regina Quick subjected to internet whisper campaign attacking her private life
So it seems there is an imposter or at least semi-anonymous poster on the Athens Banner-Herald website onlineathens.com who goes by the seemingly innocuous name of "Obama2012" that has made the same exact post four times in four different articles (all concerning the Regina Quick-Doug McKillip primary race) in an obvious non-whisper campaign at an attempt at somehow backwards besmirching of Regina Quick and questioning her personal live.
There are references to Log Cabin Republicans repeated over and over again in this person's stilted and incongruous post that have almost nothing to do with the tenor or subject of the articles except that it includes Regina Quick.
This reeks of sleazy attacks and dirty tricks, and I have a pretty good idea of who is engineering this stunt (just can't prove it yet). It is par for the course for the GOP to begin to cannibalize their own who does not subscribe to a certain established orthodoxy. The primary season is beginning to boil and fester. We need more substantive issue debates and less personal attacks and questioning people's sexual persuasion by rumor and innuendo.
I seriously doubt that Tim Bryant is going to ask Regina about this as it is a most personal matter and generally unsubstantiated gossip not worthy of a query, but I do not put anything past some of the hired help here in this city. Of course any candidate should be measured by their stand on the issues, not who they do or do not sleep with, but having been the subject of such attacks last year, desperate people resort to desperate means.

Consequently, many voters are still uncertain as to whether they are in the 117th, 118th or 119th. All voters will be receiving a voter registration card (before the election) denoting what district they are in.
But if you want to confirm your District before then, you can check various maps available on line, but it is a bit of a daunting process. Alternatively, feel free to contact me and with your exact address, I will be happy to check it for you.
