Jeff Roe Responds to Eckersley's Claim that He is Behind the E-Mail

Jeff Roe, Billy Long's controversial strategy director with Axiom Strategies claims he wasn't part of an fraudulent e-mail that announced Scott Eckersley was suspending his election. Roe told the Joplin Globe:

“Why would I do that?” Roe said. “If he realized how little he meant to me, it would probably hurt his feelings. If he knew how little time I spend thinking about Scott Eckersley, it would be disappointing to him.”

I should count all the times Jeff Roe has hit this Web site since August 3, sometimes several times an hour on some days as of recently regarding the Metrogate allegations and speeding ticketsin the News Leader, to show you how much time Roe and his Axiom goons spend on here in the ongoing debate about why Billy Long isn't qualified to go to Congress. Obviously, Roe spends more time than he wants to admit to the Globe. His ISP has hit four times just today, six times yesterday, and when an article was published about associate Jason Klindt, the ISP continued to hit the site over and over one day.

This quote is nothing new from Roe. After Roe and James Harris were accused of wrongdoing with Brian Nieves's campaign, Roe had a similar quote as well about not caring about the opposition he is paid to care about.

"I have 31 campaigns in 18 states," Roe said. "While (Nieves) is having prayer vigils about Armageddon, I'm watching Monday Night Football."

This is a tactic Roe has used in the past to distance him from trouble.
