A Northam staffer gets caught stealing
By Norman Leahy | Monday, November 7th, 2011 | Hampton Roads, Politics, VirginiaWhile not as cool as the Jane’s Addiction song, the video is rather amusing. Are Northam’s people getting a bit nervous?

Apparently, Northam has used campaign money to hire staff who are poaching Loyola campaign signage. Loyola staffers caught one of the Northam thugs in the act, and it’s great that they have video evidence. Northam may be trying to pander himself as a McDonnell Democrat, but I don’t think Bob wants a Dem like Northam who is running a state election campaign like he is in Illinois.
Too bad it’s not being shown on the news, just on you tube and conservative circles. I’ve seen this before, just not shown on a video. Glad he got caught red handed.
This was happening when I was at the gotv location while it was being set up.. I saw Loyola signs getting yanked at Granby. I am not a loyola supporter or against since he is not in my district but he does have a clear case against the people playing these games.
Were Loyola signs placed in the right of way in front of and leading up to the campaign office of Northam at the time of their GOTV rally? Bothg sides are teeling different stories. Truth please. Right now Loyola and Northam look bad.. Is this going to be another pick the lesser of two scenario?
Looking into this it appears that Loyola supporters or staff sign war ops took it upon themselves to wage a sign campaign at their opponents location. Those are Loyola opponents signs in those windows. Kathy, this deseerves news coverage but truth is it does not serve republican interests at all. Who were the idiots working for a gop candidate?
More news.. The owner of the property asked the Loyola staff/volunteers to remove the signs from his property and the public property bordering it. If you guys are trying to embarrass Loyola and the GOP, leave this video up.
Who called the cops?
I hope this guy is charged to the maximum extent of the law.
Which guy should be charged Shaun? The story I got is that the owner of the property, not northam, asked a northam staffer or volunteer to remove the signs on his property and directly in front of his property. The owner did not authorize Loyola campaign staff or volunteers per my sources. Personally I dont give a shit but the larger issue is that this kind of crap from either side of the aisle is ugly and a demonstrates a real lack of leadership from both campaigns.
You are not embarrassed Mr. Northam and Mr Loyola?
